Play 1 connected to both Boost and wifi

I have a wireless network with a Netgear rbr50 and 1 satellite. Also have a Sonos Boost connected to the RBR50 via Ethernet. 

There are 2 Play 1s in one room and 2 Symfonisks in another. The Sonos app shows all players connected to Boost (WM0).

When I check connected devices in the Netgear app it shows the Symfonisks and Boost as wired connections, but the Play 1s show as connected wirelessly, albeit with no signal.

I have tried rebooting the Play 1s but nothing changed.

Does anyone have any thoughts and should I be concerned?

Since you have a SONOS unit wired to the network, your players are using SonosNet, a private network. WM:0 confirms this. Don’t be concerned. It depends on how and when the router asks “are you on this network?”, what it will report. Newer generation SONOS units behave a little differently than their older siblings.
