Different brands - correct?

Can become a bit tricky to "mix and match" as the devices may appear physically identical but there may be internal hardware and firmware differences.

Not at all uncommon for companies to purchase from the same source but the end product is "branded" and internally designed for the end vendor's product line.

For the most part, although compatibility would be nice, manufacturer's prefer to hold you captive to their product line.

And even if "compatible" (definition can be vague) and if there are problems then, unfortunately, the manufacturer's are likely to just blame each other.....

Plus it is not at all uncommon for the product listings to just use the "nearest" product photograph and images available...

You may need to consider a return.
