differences routerlogin - Genie

Log in to Genie and display the attached devices. The GUI shows all the devices and the names you may have placed on them.
Now use routerlogin and go to display attached devices and you get a list of devices with most of the names missing. Anyone know why the names are not there?

    What are the devices which the Web UI cannot see the names under attached devices?

    entering the names in genie is not the same thing, the attached device names are part of the NETBIOS and or ARP or something close to it. These cannot be edited other than in the PC setup.

    Are the devices in Genie actively connected to the router?
