To disable random MAC addresses on iOS, you need to adjust the "Rotate Wi-Fi Address" setting. Here are the steps:

  1. Open Settings on your iOS device.
  2. Go to Wi-Fi and select the network you are connected to.
  3. Toggle off "Rotate Wi-Fi Address". When this setting is off, the random MAC address for that network will not change over time.

For macOS, the same functionality is available. You can manage the MAC address rotation in the Wi-Fi settings similarly.
