The code snippet from that page may not be accurate.

Replace:

printf("\tAdapter Addr: \t%ld\n", pAdapter->Address);


With:

printf("\tAdapter Addr: \t");
for (int i = 0; i < (int) pAdapter->AddressLength; i++)
   printf("%02X ", (BYTE) pAdapter->Address[i]);
printf("\n");


The web site where i saw that adjustment is:
