I’d like to use MAC filtering to block devices from my SOHO WIFI router. Now I found that apparently the MAC address changes to a “virtual one” (however you call this fake MAC address) as both Android and iOS phones use Mac Randomization (not sure how this works, if the MAC address changes every x hours or on each reboot?).
Is there any way I can block these devices from my router? I also have a TP-Link Deco P9 hybrid powerline-Mesh system.
Maybe I can just disable mac randomization on this devices?
I found that you can know if a MAC address is randomized by looking at the 2nd character: it would be a 2, 6, A, or E.
I use this for parental controls.
Any help much appreciated
