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 found that it happens if Netlogon service is set to automatic or delayed automatic start-up.

    I have the same phenomenon. Again like one of your previous responders, I first noticed this on the insider program, the device disappears after a short while. I checked the mac address & it matches the mac address for one of my firesticks in my router and was bona fide. It's obviously a Windows 10 glitch & to be honest, I'd be amazed if Microsoft ever did anything about it, its been around a while. It could, of course, be a conspiracy with the fate of the world in the balance.
