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?

Reconfigure your router if you haven't already done so.
Change router password.
Change Administrator password.
Disable WEP button.

2020-05-17T15:24:24+00:00 This is due to other devices seeing your WiFi as an option to connect to it. As long as you have a good password, they cannot connect. It will ask for the password. If you right click the device name and choose properties this will show you details. If there is no IP address available then you are good. If there is an IP address associated with the device then the device successfully connected. It could be the kids next door on their tablet, for example.
