+## Fixed MAC address on wifi device
+
+```console
+$ sudo touch /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/22-wifi-mac-addr.conf
+```
+
+This prevents loading <kbd>/usr/lib/NetworkManager/conf.d/22-wifi-mac-addr.conf</kbd>,
+which should contain something like:
+
+```systemd
+[connection.22-wifi-mac-addr]
+match-device=type:wifi
+wifi.cloned-mac-address=stable-ssid
+
+[.config]
+enable=nm-version-min:1.45
+```
+
+So if we just want to use the original MAC address on your home network,
+we use `nmcli` for that, like for my homenet _Macarant_Net_:
+
+```console
+$ nmcli connection modify Macarant_Net wifi.cloned-mac-address permanent
+```
