Good afternoon,

 

I'm currently cleaning up our wireless client list across networks - I've been categorizing what I can see on our primary and guest networks, and renaming the clients that are able to be renamed via router for tracking, organizational, and security purposes. We have set up our system so our IoT devices are located on the guest network on both the 2.4ghz and the 5ghz bands, and I am able to see them within the TP-Link web app as part of the Network Map. However, within Tether, I can only see a couple of the 2.4 ghz clients and none of the 5ghz clients that are connected to the guest network; this hinders my tracking as I am unable to categorize the clients properly as well as accurately determine which items are potentially using dynamic MAC addresses. Is there something I'm missing?

 

I'm currently running Tether version 4.11.7 on Android 15.

 

Thank you!

Hello@nerdchalet ,

Welcome to our community.

 

Could you please take a screenshot of the client list page?

 

Please help check if the client has a random Mac enabled?

 

Please restart the entire network system for a try.
