Original question:

I've got a random Amazon KFAUWI device showing up on my network as a device beside my driver for my router. Can anyone help? I am sure it is not a device in my house, as everything is set to something we've done or one of our names. Can anyone tell me if i'm stupid or if this is a general happening?

    I'm just curious. Could this be an Alexa enabled device like an Amazon Echo?

    I agree too, I haven't broadcast my SSID in years, and by that WPS is turned off.

    It's not WPS. I have that turned off. (Already said that earlier, suggest you read the thread).

    These Amazon devices don't show up under Ubuntu. I therefore think it's some setting in Windows networking. Not sure what, as yet.
