Everytime I spoof my mac-adress on Ubuntu using different approaches including macchanger it auto resets as soon as I actually try to reconnect to the network.
This is what my problem looks like:
TERMINAL ENTRY before reconnection
root@M-Linux:~# macchanger -s wlp2s0
Current MAC: XY (changed, obviously) (Hon Hai Precision Ind. Co.,Ltd.)
Permanent MAC: XY (Hon Hai Precision Ind. Co.,Ltd.)
root@M-Linux:~# ifconfig wlp2s0 down
root@M-Linux:~# macchanger -rb wlp2s0
Current MAC: XY (Hon Hai Precision Ind. Co.,Ltd.)
Permanent MAC: XY (Hon Hai Precision Ind. Co.,Ltd.)
New MAC: AB (unknown)
root@M-Linux:~# ifconfig wlp2s0 up
root@M-Linux:~# macchanger -s wlp2s0
Current MAC: AB (unknown)
Permanent MAC: XY (Hon Hai Precision Ind. Co.,Ltd.)
Then I reconnect to the WIFI and then this happens
root@M-Linux:~# macchanger -s wlp2s0
Current MAC: XY (Hon Hai Precision Ind. Co.,Ltd.)
Permanent MAC: XY (Hon Hai Precision Ind. Co.,Ltd.)
So the mac is back to normal.
I tried this on kubuntu 16.04.3 and another debian-based distro.
I tried it on my home and a public network. I tried it on two different machines: HP and Acer Notebooks.
Exact same results every time and NO information about the issue on the web.
What should I do?

When you restart the network interface, the network manager reloads the default configuration stored in /etc/network/interfaces.
On Ubuntu, this is the standard way to change MAC address temporarily:
/etc/init.d/networking stop
ifconfig wlp2s0 hw ether 02:01:02:03:04:08
/etc/init.d/networking start
If you want to add it permanently, add it to /etc/network/interfaces:
iface wlp2s0 inet static
address 10.0.0.100
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 10.0.0.1
hwaddress ether 02:01:02:03:04:08
Thank you, but unfortunately that didn't work. The first option is being resettet when I connect to the network, just as my way was before. The second option keeps the network from being connected to completely
