Odd icons or name in attached devices page
Sometimes the list of attached devices is off, either a device that I’ve had for a while is marked as unknown or the icon is off.
This happens every now and then and most of the times Waiting a couple of minutes and reloading fixes it. See for example This screenshot, the first device listed is a smart thermostat and it's wifi, not wired. Another time (no screenshot sorry), it had the wrong icon for an Orbi satellite!!

Hello mith_it,
May you double check on a PC and see if you are still having the same issue.
Thanks,
Christian

Please see screenshot attached. I took this on a Windows 10 with Firefox 61.0.2. As you most likely know Amazon Echos are wireless only.
For what it's worth today the device list is acting extra strange with some devices I know I are connected and work properly that don't show on the list. I already tried power cycling all Orbi devices and the WNDR4500v3 with no clear improvement.
