I wasn’t sure if this was the best place to post this. A series of events happened and I recently changed up my home network.
One of the larger changes I made was to add a Unifi Cloud gateway gateway ultra.
Right away my biggest challenge is that it does not accurately list all of the client devices that it has given a DHCP lease to.
Has anyone else run into this issue?
I have some IP based security cameras that I have only been able to locate before by looking at my ISP’s dhcp lease list and find the IP.
So right now I have cameras on my network and I have to brute force lookup the IP of them to figure out where they are.
A more minor annoyance is that the network topology map is wrong and that ubiquity switches are not being mapped.
Maybe I’m misinterpreting, but if your gateway from your ISP is also routing and handing out IPs, this is known as a double NAT and can cause all sorts of weird issues. If you’re going from your ISPs gateway to your own router, their device should be bridged so it acts like a static modem.
