the addresses have to be different as the IP address is per device. If they had the same, one of them wouldn't work.
Ok with that said back to the drawing board lol

Yes im very aware as I had started most of them anyways this wasnt about the dropping this is about reading my log you have stated thats not the log that shows me the info I mention could you direct me to the log that shows the information that my orbi is not dropping signal/ uptime
Please take a look at both pictures as wireless shows connected orbi to be the same but wired is different
