Custom MAC address on Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6E AX211 160MHz

Hi. I'd like to set a custom MAC address for my wi-fi adapter. Other models usually have this setting at adapter properties, tab "Advanced", "Network Address". However, I can't find it on my laptop.

I have:

Intel(R) Wi-Fi 6E AX211 160MHz

driver version is 22.220.0.4

OS Name Microsoft Windows 11 Pro Version 10.0.22621 Build 22621
System SKU LENOVO_MT_21DC_BU_Think_FM_ThinkPad P1 Gen 5
System Model 21DC002NUS

There are some hints on the Internet that the Linux driver supports setting custom MAC Address.

Hello basinilya,  

  


Thank you for posting on the Intel® communities. I am sorry to know that you are having issues with your Intel® Wi-Fi 6E AX211.


In this case, The MAC address is hard coded on Intel® Wireless Adapters. A Media Access Control address (MAC) can also be called a Physical Address and cannot be changed.

  

If you have any other questions, just let me know.
