Duplicate IP Addresses on Orbi Router and Satellite

Okay, so my "Attached Devices" on both my Orbi Router (RBK50) and my Orbi Satellite (RBS50) both show the some of the same IP addresses.  What gives?  It's difficult to tell which device (Router or Satellite) my home devices are attached to.  How can I fix it so the connected devices only show up on one or the other?

    The router shows all connected devices in the network when you connect to the satellite you see whats just connected to that unit.

    Hello Mr-Wednesday

     

    You can log into each satellite by using there ip address this will tell you what devices are connected to it.

      Well that's the point - i see the same IPs when I login to both routers. 

       

      For example, when Iogin into the router I see these IPs:

      192.168.200.108

      192.168.200.110

      192.168.200.117

       

      When I log into the satellite, I see these IPs:

      192.168.200.108

      192.168.200.117

       

      So which router are 192.168.200.108 and 192.168.200.117 really assigned to?
