If you want to get the MAC address (BSSID) for the wifi network you are connected to then you can do the following:

WifiManager wifiManager = (WifiManager) getApplicationContext().getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
WifiInfo info = wifiManager.getConnectionInfo();
info.getBSSID();

If you want to loop throught the available wifi networks you can do this:

WifiManager mWifiManager = (WifiManager) getApplicationContext(). getSystemService(Context.WIFI_SERVICE);

    List<ScanResult> mScanResults = mWifiManager.getScanResults();
    for (int i = 0; i < mScanResults.size(); i++)
        try {
            mScanResults.get(i).SSID; // the access point name (SSID)
            mScanResults.get(i).BSSID; // the access point MAC (BSSID)
        } catch (Exception e) {
            //....
        }

Don't forget the required permission in you manifest:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />

EDIT: the above code works for Android below 6.. To achive it for newer devices pleace check this thread

Tried this solution but above 6.0 it returns 02:00:00:00:00:00 — xuka, Aug 05 '19 at 12:01
