Windows by default generate random interface IDs for non-temporary autoconfigured IPv6 addresses. To change this type:

Disable 6to4 and Teredo, by entering the following commands in an Administrator shell:
netsh interface teredo set state disabled netsh interface ipv6 6to4 set state state=disabled undoonstop=disabled netsh interface ipv6 isatap set state state=disabled
and/or disable IP helper service:
net stop "IP Helper"
