    As CrimpOn says. Details are key. We're a forum and we can't see what you're doing, what alert it is, what your system is, what devices its on, etc. 

    The more you tell us, the better we can help. Otherwise we're just throwing out WAG's.

    Hello Venturer51,

     

    Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!

     

    I understand that you are getting security alert on your Orbi RBR750 network.

     

    I just have two questions for you:


    Which device on your network is showing a privacy alert?

    What application is showing you the security notification?

     

    Best,

    Kevin

        Its usually iphones wanting users to use private/random ip/mac information. Not really needed on your home network. but without screensnips to show if that's actually the message, its just a guess. 

        might look a little bit on apples forums. here's one of the first results on privacy warning on wifi.
