As above, got random devices showing up, I'm on BT and have a BT HUB 6 router and when I look in network there is weird stuff showing up like today "DOUGEE BL500", the other day "Douglas" and other random things. Could this be something to do with the BT Wi-Fi using a portion of my internet? Surely if any connected via that I certainly wouldn't see them in my network?

Thanks.
 
Any quick way to check what it relates to other than checking all my devices IP addresses individually?

There is one I don't recognise in there, however the one called "Douglas" doesn't show in my router as I've compared the MAC address.
 
I might change SSID and P/W, just a faff having to go through all devices to change PW. Very weird especially seeing devices in network that the router isn't registering in its settings.

And yes it's in Windows networking, seen a sony phone earlier as well, very freaky!
 
I have no extenders or powerline, and both my TV's I've owned from new so I recognise them on the network.
