Why can't I identify my Apple Watch and my Apple iPhone in the connected products?  The wifi address of neither my watch nor iPhone appear

    Thank you, issue is resolved!
    Privacy is turned on on my iPhone. I noted the private MAC address on phone and lo and behold that is what I found on Orbi!!

      Thank you

      I noticed on iPhone that I was not allowing Orbi to track me so I turned it on.  But this did not solve it.
