Please help solve the problem. After each reboot, the physical address of the Intel (R) Wi-Fi 6 AX201 160MHz wireless network adapter changes. The parameter "Random Hardware Addresses" in the network connection settings is turned off in Windows 10. I need a constant physical address of the wireless network adapter.

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:
- Did this happen after a recent window or software update?
- Have you made any hardware/software changes?
- Have you tried any troubleshooting steps?
While you respond to that, let's try these steps:
- Open the Settings app.
- Go to Network & Internet -WiFi.
- Under the WiFi adapter for which you wish to enable this, click the Advanced options link:
- Turn on the option called "Random Hardware Addresses" and you are done: Set it to "on" or "change daily"
Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
