Double networks

When I connect to my RAXE500 router it shows one of my networks twice, one says "connected" and the other says "available via Nighthawk". When I was setting up I remember seing a message but I accidentally cleared it before I could see it. Can any one help me figure out what the difference is?

    there isn't any. Netgear has a feature built into the app that auto-connects to the network it sets up. I think its a bug in the app showing the network twice because none of my other devices see the same issue while my app does.
