AC1570 Attached Devices

When I view the Attached Devices on my AC1750 why do I see wired devices? I have a Netgate pfSense firewall with a WAN connection to the ISP, a LAN connection to the unmanaged Netgear switch which is also the network Gateway address. The Netgate is also the DHCP server. The AC1750 is connected to the Netgear switch and is in AP mode only 2.4Ghz, channel 6
Firmware Version
V1.0.4.128_10.0.104

Which router is this?

 

AC1750 is not a reliable guide to model number. Many devices come with an AC tag, but it is essentially a label that Netgear, and other brands, attach to hardware to describe wifi speeds.

 

Look at the label on the device for the model number.

If this is in AP mode, you hit this:

 

Disabled Features on the Router when set to AP Mode | Answer | NETGEAR Support

 

Maybe that affects what shows in attached devices.

 

I prefer the map in the desktop genie.
