Inconsistent client info between router and access point
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I have a C1200 acting as my main router and an AX6000 acting as an access point.
They're connected by a TP Link AV2000 Powerline Adapter.
DHCP is enabled on the c1200 and not on the ax6000 (I just enabled Access Point mode from the AX6000 web interface).
If I go to the C1200 webpage and go to Advanced->Network->DHCP I can see the IP addresses assigned to the clients.
If I go to the AX6000 webpage and go to the Network Map and click on Clients I can see what the AX6000 thinks are the IP addresses for the clients.
Mostly they're the same, but not always!
Out of 20 or so clients, about 7 have different IP addresses listed.
I checked one or two of the clients and the C1200 seems to have the accurate view of what their IP address is.
For what it's worth, the lease times for the IP addresses are quite different, with the AX6000 reporting longer remaining lease time.
This isn't affecting my network performance, but I am curious about what's happening.
Any ideas?
Greg
