# Thanks to https://blogs.gnome.org/thaller/2016/08/26/mac-address-spoofing-in-networkmanager-1-4-0/ | |
# This randomize your MAC address for *new* connections | |
# Be sure to change your existing (saved) connections in | |
# /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/* | |
# NOTE: To support captive-portals that rely on a consistent mac address, | |
# use `cloned-mac-address=stable` in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/[network name] | |
[device-mac-randomization] | |
# "yes" is already the default for scanning | |
wifi.scan-rand-mac-address=yes | |
[connection-mac-randomization] | |
ethernet.cloned-mac-address=stable | |
wifi.cloned-mac-address=random | |
# The options are: | |
# | |
# - permanent: use the hardware MAC | |
# - preserve: don’t change the MAC address of the device upon activation. | |
# - random: generate a randomized value upon each connect. | |
# - stable: generate a stable, hashed MAC address. | |
