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?

    Is any all all of you have a Amazon device on their network, like a Kindle Fire, echo, etc., and use Alexa?

    No, I do not have any Amazon device as such.  The ones showing up on my network but not connected are all devices in the neighborhood, I guess.

    any luck on this?  I have seen Austin as well, and have several amazon echo devices on my network.  was wondering if it had anything to do with a skill or app that was installed on the amazon device.
