Strange devices on router and LAN

Recently I have noticed these strange devices appearing on my router. I would like to know if there are dangerous or not.  They appear to be Humax, and Technicolor devices, but why would they show up like this?

The timezone was also changed recently if that is any concern, I don't know if that's automatic or why it would do that.

Hello @gapoiheb!

 

Welcome to the Community Forums! I hope you are enjoying the day! Having strange devices appear on the router is concerning. I am more than happy to help with finding out if they are dangerous or not!

 

When I searched for Humax and Technicolor I find these devices can be smart TVs, set top boxes, or web cameras. If you own these devices they may be connecting to your Wi-Fi if you have a Wi-Fi router set up without security set up like a password.

 

You may want to check out the Troubleshoot and Resolve page and click on Change My Wi-Fi Password > I Have Fixed Wireless Internet, and follow the steps until you are able to change your wifi password.

 

I’m glad I could provide this information! Thank you and have an awesome evening!
