What firmware version are you on? I assume the latest .40? In which case did it only occur when upgrading to this firmware? If so downgrade to .32, do you still see the issue?
It started on .32 I believe. I didn't notice it at first and when I did .40 had come out. In reality it fixed it for a while but after the router has been running so long it quits working for me in the device list. I only care because if I turn on a console and it was showing as offline, it won't move to online status and thus Geo Filter does not function.
As of now my Nintendo Switch for example shows as offline and will not move to Online devices even tho I'm using it online right now. And thus Geofilter does not populate for games.
- Okay interesting, does the console by any chance go into standby when you turn it off? If so, get it to the point where it is working correctly, then turn the device off completely. Next time you turn it on does it appear on the Device Manager properly?
