It will give a bunch of info but up near the top should be an alpha/numeric string like 0A-F4-BD-00-01-C3. I think it is labeled as physical address. These strings are unique to each physical network card. When you put it into your router, it may require : instead of - between the pairs. Most will show you an example.

I've tried that but the darn thing wouldn't work. When you say DHCP tab in your router, where exactly am I looking? On my router, when I log into my router, the options there or in the network options that's accessible directly from the network and sharing center?
*Edit
Also, I failed to mention I bought a new router that has a fixed IP. So messing around with the internet router is no longer necessary. Still though, based on my server configurations, I haven't been able to log into my servers when they are LAN.
