Anyobe with Be can you help me please?

Hi,
I just joined Be from AOL. I connected 2 PCs to the Bebox via ethanet cables and I also disabled the wireless networking on the Bebox. On the devices section of the home networking menu of the Bebox there is an "unkown" device (as well as the 2 PCs) which I can delete but it comes back if I turn the Bebox off then on again. Could it be detecting the thing i've got to send sky tv to a television upstairs?

Also, I did a port scan at "shields Up" and it said that ports 21 and 23 (and another 1 I cant remember) were open (same ports on both PCs). When I was with AOL all the ports were in stealth mode, so how do I do this on the Bebox? Or is it just the site and im worrying for nothing?
Thanks

The other port open is 443. The portscan had the same IP address on both PCs.

I have the unknown device, its supposed to be there but cant for the life of remember why.

Port 21 = FTP
Port 23 = Telnet
Port 443 = HTTPS

It sounds like the Bebox has remote management ports open and there probably isn't much you can do about it.

So will my PCs be easy to hack into then?

I didn't say that, I said that I thought the Bebox had management ports open. I would assume (if I'm right) that the management of the Bebox is password protected.

ok this is what you do
open telnet type 192.168.1.254

or
start --run in the run box type telnet 192.168.1.254
putin your username and password
then type this
service system ifdelete name=FTP group=wan
service system ifdelete name=TELNET group=wan


"unkown" device is your gateway no need to worry.

that will be 80 pounds plz
