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?

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.

It could mean someone with this Amazon device is close by and sees your WiFi signal. The point where you need to be worried is if it has an IP address showing up on your network. That means they have gotten connected to your network.
