I read you look inside the box, where the grils are, you can read the mac looking through the grills.

NOPE,,,the Mac Address sticker is on the motherboard inside the box....all SV7 start with 00266******* but instead of opening your box up if your box is connected and working properly the mac address is in system information,,,,if you need to pay it is on the message....box not registered ,,,box number 00266******
