R7500v2 Bridge Mode W/ R8500 router not displaying devices properly in network map

R7500v2 Bridge Mode W/ R8500 router not displaying devices properly in network map

Router R8500 FW 1.0.0.56_1.0.28

Bridge mode R7500v2 FW 1.0.0.28

All the devices connected to the R7500v2 Bridge are showing up on the network map of the R8500 with the same name and MAC address of the R7500v2 but with different IPs.  This was not like this when using either Asus RT-AC87u or RT-AC68u in bridge mode.  

My Xbox One, PS4, PC and TV would all display correctly in network map but now they all have the same MAC and name as the Bridge R7500v2 once I started using it.

 

Additionally within the R7500v2 GUI all devices connected to it show up correctly however anything connected to the R8500 do not.

 

is there anyway to fix the communications between the devices so that everything shows up correctly on the network maps?

Disregard I returned the r7500v2 unit for a refund.
Still complicating returning the R8500 for the Asus AC5300. Minor things are an annoyance that didn't exist when I used Asus.
