Multiple IP's for Single MAC Address, this can't be right, anyone else the same

I’m reading that 192.168.0.116 is the only device assigned a MAC address, the others are available. I presume the output is from the VM app, I don’t/can’t use it as I run in modem mode.

That whole DHCP table looks odd to me, as the last octets are repeated in places.  Maybe a pinhole reset would do the Hub the world of good .....  

The only other thing I can think of is the Pod is getting one IP, and the rest are devices attached to the Pod?  Who knows, I don't use Pods and I certainly wouldn't use the Hub as a Router.

The actual IP is 115, question is, where do the Self Assigned come from ?

That's a TP-Link MAC address for the Smart socket.  So assuming it's grabbed a DHCP lease and the Hub is reporting it as "Self Assigned".

It'sScreenshot 2024-11-13 at 09.30.41.png not the only one, most of my devices have multiple IP's assigned according to the router , as this example

In the original post there is a table of IPs, the display format looks quite different to what we see from our VM Hub's Connected items web page.

Exactly what are we looking at ? I.E. What make / model of device displayed that table of information ?

I have done a pin reset, and It's cleared up a bit, I only have two devices with multiple IP's, but I am still getting Self Assigned and DHCP, surely they must be one or another
