RAXE500 - Multiple devices in "Attached Devices" with different subnet

I have a RAXE500.  Latest firmware ( V1.2.13.100_2.0.54).  I have the subnet range set at 192.1.168.xxx, but for some reason, there are several devices that show up in the 10.0.0.x range.  This is happening with wired and wifi devices.  Even on the PC I'm typing this note on, the ethernet has a "192" IP address, but the wifi adapter has a "10" IP address.  Any thoughts on what could be causing this behavior?  I'm not doing this on purpose, and I don't have any extenders on the network.  Thx!

    What mode is the RAXE working in? Router or AP mode? 

     

    What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?

      Thank you for the reply!

       

      The router is working in router mode.

      The modem is a Nighthawk CM2050V (self purchased and configured remotely via my ISP (Infinity)).

        what is the wifi network name (SSID) you're seeing with the 10.0 /16 subnet IP address?

        maybe you've inadvertently connected to a nearby Xfinity hotspot?

    the Xfinity gateways for example use 10.0.0.1 subnet by default.

    possibly your wifi is connected to your ISP gateway

    while your ethernet is plugged into the RAXE500 with its 192.168 subnet.

     

    tip:  maybe best, you put your ISP gateway in "bridge" mode.

    (else put the RAXE500 in AP mode, take your choice, if that's the issue)
