C7000 Shows Random IP for LAN device

Hello,

For some reason my router is showing a random public IP for a device on my LAN. (Its a raspberry pi)

 

I setup a static IP of 192.168.0.20  and port forward of 44158 to the device but when I view attached devices it will show the IP of 192.168.0.20 then randomly back to  9.128.223.0

 

We are looking at the top device in the pictures below.

Correct

After refresh it shows this

I looked up that IP and its a public IP for a place in NC. What is going on?

 

Sorry I tried to embed images and it did not work.
