Interface issue

2022-09-23 14:24:28

Model: Archer AX1800

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version:

Not a big deal but when I was viewing the client list connected to my router, it shows that some devices that are definately connected via WiFi, connected as Lan, and vise-versa.

Anyone know why this is? For example, I have a smart De-humidifier in the basement and it has no ethernet plug, and shows up on client list as connected via Lan, which is obviously impossible.

Would you have any homeplugs or wifi extenders in use? If so these could be using the powerline and therefore read as LAN connection on the router.

Yes, I do have an extender, never thought of that. However, none of the devices in question are connect to the extenders wifi, if that matters. Like I said, it's not a big deal, everything works, just found it odd.
