Strange display in Netgear RBR50 admin page
My Main Orbi router:
You can see that the routers MAC Address ends in 8B
On the attached devices page - the main router has the name “NVR” – this is incorrect – its actually my Network Video Recorder on 192.168.0.2
So now everything thinks its attached to the NVR?
As far as i can tell everything seems to be working ok. Has anyone seen this before or know how to fix it? Or is it a bug in the latest firmware? Any help appreciated. (Doesnt seem to like inline images and i can only attach ONE image. And i cannot attach a Word Doc. Not a very helpful system for explaining issues..)

What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?
Please don't post MAC addresses in a public forum.

Yes, the forum software package that Netgear uses does not show images placed "in line" with the Photos icon until they have been approved by a forum moderator. Images attached using the Browse button in the lower left are available immediately. More than one image can be attached. (I have personally never done more than three, so I do not know if there is a limit.)
It is unusual to see an Orbi system use 192.168.0.x on the LAN side. Did you choose this?
