| Mystery device on my wireless router
After accidentally deleting my network settings for my PlayStation Portable, I decided that I should get that back on my network. In doing so, I noticed a unknown network device connected to, and online, my router. I checked the details of said device, but it didn't give me too much beyond an IP addy, subnet mask, and a MAC addy. I have full WPA security that, to the best of my knowledge, should need the password to access my system. Is this something that I should be worried about, or is this a random entity that is associated with a device that I already have granted permission? |

| If your WPA settings are good, then the chances are that this is something on your own network (i.e. not an intruder). However, you have not given any information that we could use to better find what is happening.

I had the same thing and I was a little non-plussed. It was the wireless adapter for my workstation.
Hope this helps. |
