The devices connected to my range extender do not show on my router
I currently have it set up as a mesh extender as opposed to an access point. Because the devices I need to connect are wired (a server and my desktop). They are connected through a netgear 5 port “dumb” switch to the extender. The issue is I do not see the server or my desktop on the router (Xfinity xFI) they have been there before because I can see them as previously connected. Also I noticed they get assigned a virtual machine address as opposed to their MAC addresses being forwarded to the router. I thought this was supposed to act as a bridge to the router. Or is that only possible through it being an access point? Any assistance would be/is greatly appreciated thank you!

I will never emotionally recover from this... but okay so what confuses me is I see them on my routers interface like it shows they have conncected in the past so thats really what confuses me. But I apologize for asking a question that has been asked before. Thank you for your time!
