MAC Address

Hi,

 

I've a D7000 on my Talktalk VDSL line, works fine but what I  cannot understand is that the MAC addresses listed under attached devices don't agree with what's listed on some of the devices and some entries don't show any IP address. Is there something I am missing when looking? Attached devices have had no hardware changes from new and only occurs for wireless devices? What am I not understanding? Any advice appreciated.

Thanks

   D7000[v1] or D7000v2?  Look for "Model" on the product label.
Firmware version?  Connected to what?

   Wired?  Wireless?  Could be some devices which have been connected,
and did something, but which didn't use DHCP to request an address.  Or
wireless devices trying to use bad credentials?  With no useful
information, it's tough to be confident of much.
