Research direction
Start with the keenetic_ndms2 integration and its documentation at https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/keenetic_ndms2/. Compare the Keenetic app's Online status with Home Assistant diagnostics for a device connected through the mesh LAN path, then trace how the integration determines device_tracker presence. Done means the affected device is reported as home when that connection is active.
