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?

2020-01-26T21:28:39+00:00 My problem was solved.
It turned out that I was on my neighbours network instead of mine.
My pc's powerline adapter was syncing with his router's adapter instead of mine and I was on his network wondering what the heck all these other devices were. It dawned on me what had happened when I saw the router MAC address didn't match mine.
The only explanation we could come up with is our row of 4 houses must share the earth connection.
I now only use wi-fi but if had to use the powerline would use MAC filtering.

2020-01-29T17:35:59+00:00 I have an austin, too. Different mac address. Shows as a network device on my pc but not in the list of connected clients on the router.
On Windows 10 1709 16299.64. I'm sure its something to do with a recent cumulative update.
Funny, I have a karnak (instead of your austin) all infos identical from screenshot above just different MAC address. This device DOES NOT SHOW in my router either.
Definitely fishy !!!!
