I am super lost on what to do to get my different devices IP address/names listed.
Router: Unifi Dream Machine
Router has DNS set to AGH IP address and the router is automatically setting DNS for each device. It makes sense that the router IP address is the only one showing, but I’m pretty sure there is a way to get distinct client IPs to show.
I don’t know which router equipment you’re using so I can’t advise further, however, In your DHCP server settings you need to set the DNS server to your AdGuard DNS and then release/renew your leases on your client devices. (This can be a command like ipconfig /release on your Win machines, or reconnecting your wifi on mobile devices).

Hi!
I don’t know which router equipment you’re using so I can’t advise further, however, In your DHCP server settings you need to set the DNS server to your AdGuard DNS and then release/renew your leases on your client devices.

Ahah! That worked. Thanks!
For some reason I thought that disconnecting and reconnecting to the network automatically renewed the DHCP lease.
Is there anyway to force all clients to renew their lease?
You’ll have to wait until they ping home and ask to renew the DHCP lease, on most home routers it’s once every 30 minutes or so.
Awesome. Thanks CriticalMiss!
