The ipcfg library is currently unmaintained, and has issues in getting MAC addresses, especially on Windows machines where the system language is set to something other than English.
Expected behavior
We should use a maintained library that does not suffer from issues getting MAC addresses in different circumstances.
One candidate for this is https://pypi.org/project/get-mac/ a library that rather than using CLI utilities and parsing the output like ipcfg does, instead uses direct C APIs in the different OSes it supports.
