What name does the ARLO base station use in your router's list of connected devices?

Do you know what name the Arlo base station uses in the list of connected devices your router lists with assigned UP addresses?

Is it "Azure Wave Technologies"? I don't see anything obvious like "Arlo" or "Netgear."

Thanks!

I'll post this here too in case anyone else is having the problem...

Yeah.... I thought that would be the case but I don't see anything "Netgear" on my IP list. I just now thought to look at the MAC addresses. I found it. It's under "VMB..." which just so happens to be the model number of the base station. Doh!

I also see mine as VMBxxxx on my router. However, using a WiFi analyzer shows a NTGR_VMB_xxxx so it varies according to exactly what you're looking at.

Yes... glad you found it... ( btw, slip of fingers above, as it is VMB not VBM )

The ssid is usu clearly visible and show as netgear one way or the other ( mac )
