Categories in device manager???

[Pgandolfo78]

Why would two iPhones (same model) have different categories on the “device manager”. One shows “smartphone” and the other “network”

[FURRYe38]

Are they both connected to the RBR or is one connected to the RBS? 

Is the RBS wired or wireless connected to the RBR? 

What FW Version is the Orbi system using?

Because Netgear attempts to deduce what the device is from a combination of the MAC address and (possibly) some code they purchased from Fing.  And, it doesn't work worth s**t.
