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 have posted several times this link is a very good explanation of the issue. However, the bottom line is to turn off WPS in the router and disable Windows Connect Now - Config Registrar service on the PC.
If you have an Amazon ECHO 5 or whatever, that is what you are seeing.
THIS is cyber infiltration by nefarious entities. This just 'DOESN'T HAPPEN" its cyber war. Since we don't hear from Microsoft, they must be complicit. FBI, CIA, NSA (+ FCC) seem to be quietly collecting this information so they will have an excuse for NOT ACTING!
