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?

2017-12-03T17:39:47+00:00 No. I don't any Dash buttons.
I have just had to reinstall my system (Creator's Fall (1709/16299.64), and now I have a suez, which appears when I first view the network devices and vanishes after a couple of minutes. It still doesn't have an IP address or appear in the list of devices connected to the router and I'm pretty sure it's a non-existent device. (I was on the Insider program when I first experienced this.)

2017-12-03T17:02:36+00:00 I do wonder, does anyone with the Amazon device popping up have an AMAZON Dash button(s)?
I have an Intel I7-6700K, I'm on DSL and have seen this popup just recently. I've blocked this MAC in my Router which is the only way any device would have access to my main PC. I also show a phone on my network from time to time that is Named acawhl_00651: HTC Bolt (2PYB2) just like this Amazon device.

2017-11-29T04:06:40+00:00 I currently (28nov2017) have the same issue.
Just found a site which identifies this device as an Amazon Fire 7 2017 Tablet.

Still don't know how they are on my network unless it's part of Comcast Xfinitys "Free" WiFi created by Comcast to allow others to use all paid subscribers networks when they are supposedly away from home. I have also seen an Amazon Echo on my network as well. And Comcast wants to Kill Net Neutrality! Neighbors I suspect!
