    Router and network indicating differently.


    New RAC2V1S router to serve as router and server for 6 movie HDD's via USB. Router reports nothing connected to WiFi but all my PC's show in net on PC. Router does not show in net but streams the movies all of which list on my movie player. Why does router not show up in net on PC?

    Phantom router on network

    Recently I've noticed a "phantom" router appearing in my network. The Belkin router is not mine, the Linksys is.

    Properties of the Belkin router list serial number, MAC address, model number, model, manufacturer, but no IP address. It only shows up on my desktop, not the Pro 3's or HP laptop's File Explorer under Network.

    Desktop is connected to network with a Netgear WNDA3100v3 N600 Dual Band USB Adapter - WPA2-PSK security type. Pro 3 and Laptop connect to network with their internal wireless connections

    Haven't noticed any "strange" behavior, or usage, on my machines, but am curious as to why it is appearing in my network.

    Also, any suggestions for a program that will scan the network and list all units "attached" to it?

    Hi,

    To better assist you, we would like to know the following information:

    In the meantime, we suggest that you run the Network troubleshooter. The Network troubleshooter can help diagnose and fix common connection problems. Kindly follow the steps below:

    • In the search box on the taskbar, type Network troubleshooter, and then select

    If the issue persists, kindly try the troubleshooting steps on the following link:

    Yet another thread on needing a router guys *Roll :roll:

    Welp moral of the story is my current router decided to kick the bucket and no longer turns on so I’m in need of a new one for the family needs. I have a list of routers I have looked at but I’m not very good with networking so wondering out of the options I listed is the best choice. Please no other recommendations *I Love TPU :lovetpu:

    Options:

    TP-Link AC1750
    TP-Link AC1350
    Linkys AC1200+
    Netgear AC1200
