Zusammenfassung:	Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to techniques for increasing local area network (LAN) device privacy. One aspect provides a method for wireless communications at an access point (AP). The method generally includes: determining a mapping between a first distribution system (DS) medium access control (MAC) address and a second DS MAC address; obtaining, from a source access terminal, a frame having the second DS MAC address; and sending at least a portion of the frame to a target access terminal based on the mapping between the first MAC address and the second MAC address.
