Dear Community,

I'm actual in trouble with my laptop, because my MAC adress always changes, if I turn on/off my WLAN. How/Where can I create a static MAC-adress?

I've tried it in the advanced options, but there wasn't a layer for the network-adress.

I hope you can help me.

Thx a lot!

Sebastian

Hello ESebastian,

 

 

Thanks for posting. We understand that you want to set a unique MAC address for your wireless adapter.

 

 

Please notice that the MAC address for Intel® Wireless adapters is fixed and shouldn't change. This may happen if configured by the user using third party software such as MAC spoofing tools.

 

 

Are you using a third party software related to wireless or networking in general? These may be monitoring and optimization tools, VPNs, etc.

 

 

Best regards
