For reference, I'm using a Dell G3 15, with Windows 10 Pro 64 bit. I have done as much research as I can but I am unable to get this to work.
The intel option doesn't have a network address property to change (or anything else with the word "address" in it), and the Realtek option has a network address option, but I after changing that to multiple different things both random and attempting to follow the same general pattern as the current physical address, nothing has managed to change my mac address (I'm checking this by looking at physical location, in the wireless section after using ipconfig /all in command prompt, so maybe I'm checking the wrong thing but either way it still isn't changing my mac address). One of these is "Intel(R) Wireless-AC 9462", and the other is "Realtek PCIe GbE Family Controller".
I've tried going into device manager, and there are two options there (there are others but they are Bluetooth, wan, or other stuff that isn't what I'm looking for).
