Be sure to disable any MAC Address randomizers on phones and pads while at home:

Rebooting doesn't fix it, so this information seems oddly persistent - it's like a snapshot of Devices/IPs that it saw at one point, but with DHCP, the addresses have changed because - duh- that's the D (DYNAMIC) of DHCP, but the Orbi doesn't seem to know this and keeps the old incorrect devices and IPs - even some devices we don't have on the network any longer.
