Selim,

The GetAdaptersInfo function can be used only for the local computer.

To obtain MAC address for a LAN computer use either WMI Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration class or the NetWkstaTransportEnum function, as long as you have sufficient priviliges on accessing this computer.
oServer = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" + "SOMECOMPUTER" + "\root\cimv2") 
oAdapters = oServer.ExecQuery(; 
	"SELECT * FROM Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration")
