help needed please

so far so good :)

What i do not understand is when i log into my netgear app that connects to my upstairs router

the only thing that is connected to the netgear 1) my PC via wired, 2) my phone via wireless and 3) it connects to internet (as an AP to the sky router)

but checking the devices connected it says :


Wired

my PC
office PC
Sky
photo frame (but this is wireless there is no cable)
2nd computer (but this is wireless there is no cable as i unplugged the homeplugs)
Mobile phone


Wireless

my phone

Taking your photo frame as an example - I suspect this is connected via wireless to the Sky router. Only the Sky router can see the "wireless" part of the connection, after that it appears as any other device on the network. Your netgear router can see the photo frame on the network, but can't see that it's wireless because the Sky router is managing the wireless part.
