Orbi RBR50 2.7.0.70 not showing all the attached devices
RBR50 (2.7.0.70) and two satelites RBS50 (V2.7.0.70) and RBS20 (2.5.1.16) are not showing all the attached devices in the website or app. Is this a known issue? Any recomendations? Thank you

Not true
Many users here have done firmware updates without performing a factory reset, which by the way is more so used in cases of lost passwords.

I am having the same problem. I can only see a max of 16 devices which makes it difficult to troubleshoot an issue I am having with a camera because I can't see where it is connecting to. I haven't tried a factory reset as I am not sure this will fix the problem and don't want to waste time re-setting everything up.

I was finally contacted by Netgear support and although it took quite a while and several screenshots, I was able to help them understand the issue.
My hunch is that this was a feature change at some (recent) point, and I requested that they at least added options to the app to turn this functionality off.

You can try updating FW as well:

These updates may be the cause of the problem

Get the same result in both the router GUI and the app. I generally don't use the app.

Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?
Try udpating to v104:
or downgrade to v16:
