      This is curious. When I scan my WiFi network using the app Fing, I have devices listed that are not on the list of DHCP leases. Why might that be? I have set aside 192.168.0.89 and below for static leases. One of my devices (Global Cache iTach) has 192.168.0.18 and is not found in pfSense listing. Likewise another Global Cache device was assigned 192.168.0.250, according to Fing, and is not on the list in pfSense. Both devices can be pinged with Fing. How do I fix this issue? Thanks.

        Set the clients to use dhcp or setup reservation for them... They were either setup static, or some other dhcp server handed them their IPs..
