I found this information, but my router registers a different number. Why does that happen?

This happens because the iPhone disguises itself. If you don't want it to do this.


Tap Settings

Tap Wi-Fi

Tap on the blue "i" circle next to the name of the Wi-Fi network

Scroll down and turn off Private Wi-Fi Address


Your iPhone Wi-Fi connection is now not as secure as before....and you may see a Privacy Warning.....but it is your call.
