You mean the code required to move from one ISP to another (Migration Authority Code)? You have to ring your ISP to get it.
Note that your ISP doesn't HAVE to give you a MAC code AFAIK... If they won't your only option is to cancel your plan, then request a new one from a different ISP after you have been de-provisioned.

On a Mac, go to System Preferences (under the Apple Menu) and click: Network, then where it says Show, click to select Built-in Ethernet and finally click on the Ethernet tab. You will then see "Ethernet ID: " followed by hexadecimal numbers like so:
00:0a:99:d1:79:ff
That will be your MAC code. Your broadband router may be able to clone the code, but that is a little different on each router.

Dont talk mince guys. To get the MAC code you need to phone your Internet Service Provider and request a MAC code. They are obliged to give you it if you are not under contract. It basically means a Migration code. You cannot get this from your IP config screen.

Halox is mainly right, but when you call your ISP to set up your
broadband account (it is high speed, right? ;-) you MUST have your
MAC ID code or they must know it already. It is located on the back
of your DSL or Cable modem box.

Logon to the admin screen for your router. It should be under a heading like device info or system status....
