R7000 access to devices
Quite confused about devices attached to my router.
Whether in Basic or Advanced, "Attached Devices" shows 17. On both pages I have a link called "Access Control" which shows 33 devices. Within "Access Control" is a link called "View list of allowed devices not currently connected to the network" which contains 37 devices.
I actually have 41 devices. I can access, view, control (if allowed) 38 of them.
How do I view all devices under "Attached Devices?" How do I connect to devices allowed, but not connected?
Secondly, under Attached Devices AND "Access Control" when I change the name of a device, it doesn't "stick." How do I permanently change a device name?
Third, two of the attached devices are a Ubiquiti AP and a Netgear R6050 set as AP. Each has a different name (SSID?) from the R7000. Devices can attach to both APs (judging by SSID) and access the net, yet, neither appear on the list of Advanced Devices. How can I tell if a device is actually attached to the AP or the R7000?

Re: R7000 access to devices
Hi @required_alias, we'd like to know the following.
What is the firmware version of the R7000?
Have you tried managing the allowed/not allowed devices via the Device Manager option on the Nighthawk app?
Devices that are set to have a static IP sometimes do not show up on the attached devices list. Are any of your devices set that way?

Re: R7000 access to devices
V. 1.0.11.126_10.2.112 - "No updates available"
Nighthawk app? No. Logging in through browser - all devices "Allowed."
Static IPs? Yup, 10.Two of them show in "Attached Devices."
Bonus problem. I have the R7000, R6050 as AP, Ubiquiti AP.
R7000 50 ghz now shows as "Hidden." R7000 24ghz isn't hidden. AFAIK, I've made no changes. How do I "unhide" the 50ghz.
R6050 - apparently not hidden. I can log on to it every time.
Ubiquiti - apparently not hidden. I can log on to it every time.
Any way I can tell which of those 3 (R7000, R6050, Ubiquiti) a device is connected to?
