R7500 displays phones as network devices on Windows 10

A R7500 is configured as a LAN wifi router to a Google Fiber box.  The R7500 has IPv6 cofigured as pass-through.  The R7500 seems to connect and run at high speeds.  When I checked network devices in Windows 10 Pro, I see different phones appearing on and off throughout the day.  The wifi connecfions are set as private in Windows 10.  How can I prevent non-private and stranger phones from appearing in Windows 10.
