If you mean invisible attached devices, there can be different solutions based on what you want to achieve, what you are doing, the Netgear devices you use and other factors.
If you need help with a particular system, then rather than latching on to the end of an inconclusive conversation that has been running for some time, it might be better to start your own fresh contribution, including as much detail as possible.
You can help people to help you by providing the information suggested in this forum's header:

I am trying to use access control, when I log in to the router on my computer it says to use the app.
When I use the app I was getting nothing, just wanted me to set up parental controls.
I updated to the latest firm ware on the router and now I can see devices on the app.
But I still don't see how to turn on access control or how I can allow to devices in.
Also none of the devices in the list have any name next to them, before they had a description.
