Since Apples introduction of WiFi Private IP address and Limit IP tracking and iCloud Private Relay in there iOS, this seems to have been causing problems for users of Netgear's mobile ...
Updating this to reflect changes in Apple iOS behavior seen in iOS v18 and beyond.
Apple has implemented additional options to the Private WiFi Address feature.
3 options are now seen here:
1. Disable - Disables the MAC address randomization on the phone. Uses actual MAC address set on the phone.
2. Fixed - Sets a fixed MAC address that differs from actual MAC address of the phone.
3. Rotating - Randomized the MAC address. Good for traveling or connecting to open WiFi networks when away from home.
Enjoy.
