A strange issue with RAX35 connection quantity
Just recently, I've encountered a really strange issue with my RAX35 router. I could not get an Internet connection even on my wired computer. Everything was OK with my Modem, my Router. No issues ...

Yes. Now that you've decided what the cause of the problem must be,
let's look at the actual evidence.

Perhaps the router sees it as a different device because it presents
itself as a different device.

Which "older NETGEAR routers" did you use with devices running iOS
version 14.x?
My router is RAX35v.2
My older one was AC2350.
My older one was AC2350.

mystery is still a mystery, but the real question is whether you were
running iOS 14.x with it.> https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211227
Did you read it? Did you try to "turn off the Private Address
setting for that particular network"? Or is at least one of us wasting
his time here?- Sorry.
My previous router was R7500v2.
And I have just deleted several duplicates of our iPhones, plus, three Alexa units.

I guess that that answers my last question.

Thank you very much for your comment. I've just turned off the Private Address on my iphone.
I'll do the same on my wife's one.
