'Prefer Private Connection' on Connected Devices page?

Not applicable

What does the tick box do? I have noticed that the gateway is reporting incorrect IP addresses for some of my LAN clients on the connected devices table. It has an incorrect hostname, and ip. I have tried pinging the incorrect ip and its dead (as it should be). It seems to be a purely cosmetic bug as the routes are still fine in my LAN.

@flavio that feature is to disable broadcasting any public hotspots. However, the XB6 does not have that enabled at this time as per our details here "The XB6 Advanced WiFi modem is also capable of broadcasting this secondary WiFi network, and is expected to launch at a later date."
