    I have a netgear router as well.
    I have 4 other people on my wifi network and went to the " LAN Setup" in the menu and have recorded names against MAC addresses in the "Address Reservation" part at the bottom of the screen. Then when I want to know who is on the network I look at the 'Attached Devices' then match them up by going to the LAN Setup page. It seems to be the long way around but I haven't found another way yet.

    Yeah good one, thanks for the reply.
    I've done as you suggested and it shows me exactly what you said it would.
    It's a very convoluted way around it but never the less it's better than not having it at all.
