As a quick sample create a new project and add a listbox, at the top of the file do a

using system.Management

and also add a reference to system.Management.dll

 

then paste the following code into the form

private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
ManagementClass Netconfig = new ManagementClass("Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration");
ManagementObjectCollection Nics = Netconfig.GetInstances();
foreach(ManagementObject Nic in Nics)
{
if((bool)Nic["IPEnabled"] == true)
listBox1.Items.Add(string.Format("MAC address\t{0}",  Nic["MacAddress"].ToString()));
Nic.Dispose();
}
}
