The problem seems to be linked to your UniFi access point. Your Ethernet devices might be using the access point's name instead of their own IP addresses. Check your router settings or network configuration to ensure devices are assigned correct local IPs.

Completely typical, as it's essentially on the same network after all.

It seems to function as the primary router, and your network name is currently set. You'll need more details about your network setup to provide a helpful response.

You're connecting your Fios router, UniFi access point, and a few desktops via Ethernet. You're looking for information about how everything is set up and functioning together.

That's correct. Networks come in various types, so more details help. It really does matter how they're linked. If your setup matches the example—modem as your Fios router and the router as your Wi-Fi AP—the router would serve as the central hub for your internal network. Unless you configure otherwise, this is just an illustration; you don't need to draw it out.

In my setup, the desktops link straight to the modem (the fios box manages Wi-Fi for part of my home) while the router stays separate from the modem.
