I had been puzzling over: Why does my Chromebook seem to be using Traffic Analyzer data on a Mac address other than the one that's registered as connected on my RT-AX88U router?

I think I just found the answer: https://support.google.com/chromebo...mac-address-ramdamization-of-chromebook?hl=en

I thought I would post this if someone else was trying to figure this out. BTW These probes seem to continue even when the device is not being used. Why the data with Microsoft Copilot, it’s a Chromebook?

Client Name: 76:10:C9:xB:xx:xx (part of the Mac address deleted by me)
