OP here—thanks for all the replies! Super helpful.
I tried the windows 11 mac address mask at a coffee shop and checked with a MAC scanner (thanks for the tip!). It *did* change, so that’s cool.
But now I’m curious—anyone know if this affects gaming or streaming? Like, could it cause lag or drops? Saw a few threads about it but no clear answers.
Also, big shoutout to the Wireshark suggestion—gonna try that next!
