Device IP addresses don't match the scan results   01 July 2021, 09:31

The app shows 7 devices and I have 7 devices. But the IP address on my wife's iPhone and my All-in-One HP are different to the two "unknown" devices listed in the scan.

Thoughts?

Sorry, it's hard to tell without seeing it. It has never happened in testing and no one has reported this in years.

This theoretically may be the case if you use any WiFi range extenders or repeaters, as these tend to play up with MAC addresses.

Would you be able to post a screen shot of WiFi Guard together with a screen shot of your HP computer current IP configuration?
