Unknown Device In Network?
Jan 19, 2011
Since i got sky broadband it's always been running super slow, the amount of times i have called them is ridiculous. So i have just been looking around on the sky address to see if i can fix it and in my Attached devices i have, the pc, an ipod touch and an unknown device. I'm wondering if this has anything to do with the slow speeds and maybe it's somehow 'stealing' my broadband. I've read a previous post of the same type but that wasnt for sky. i ran the ipconfig/all into CMD

I recently purchased a Linksys EA4500 Dual-Band N900 Router with Gigabit and USB. Everything set up great with no problems and after a day or 2 I managed to get all home devices connected (2 laptops, 2 printers, an iphone, 1 tv, 1 blu-ray, an old desktop, and a tablet). Everything was connected right and working and I installed the Linksys app on my iPhone which let me see what devices were connected and all that. Well, last night, an unknown device showed up as a connected device. It's labeled as: android_(insert string of characters) and has a MAC address. I've tried and tried to identify what this device is and I can't. Everything else on our network is still showing up independently of that device. I'm worried that someone using our connection and possibly putting our device security at risk. What can I do to A) try to identify what the device is and B) if it is an intruder, block it's access.

It may be a coincidence but my Broadcom Network Adapter 802.11g stopped working after trying to fix 'unknown device' in Device Manager (It was working perfectly before this).OS: Windows 7 Starter on 'BenQ Joybook Lite U105'.I tried the Windows Network trouble shooter and it didn't work (saying there may be a problem with the driver. I uninstalled the driver and re-installed it (including a possibly newer one) and it didn't work. Within 'Network Connections" the Broadcom wireless adapter is shown as 'disabled' I R-clicked to enable it, a window popped up saying it was enabled but it still showed as being disabled. My feeling is that something is preventing it from being enabled, logically, I would guess. Also went to 'Component Services' and ether started or restarted everything with the word network on it still no luck..My Google search on an other pc , now on day 3, couldn't find anything. (BTW the 'unknown device' which according to the icon, seems to be the joybook itself, is still not fixed and still listed as 'unknown device').

My desktop's internet connection is acting up. It's always worked fine, then all of a sudden it has stopped. I can still access MSN messenger and Paltalk, perfectly fine, and it is showing that I have an internet connection. However, when I open any of my browser windows, it cannot access the internet. My laptop and ipod are connecting fine on the wireless. I have my ethernet cable from the desktop plugged into the router, which is plugged into the modem. I CAN force the connection to work by 'talking' to the modem (using the IP address) and doing a disconnect and reconnect. This lasts for a little while, then it stops again. When I do my network map, it shows an 'unknown device' where the modem is supposed to be. When I disconnect and reconnect the modem, it changes from 'unknown device' to 'switch'.

We had a new linux server installed at a remote office yesterday, unfortunately the guy installing the server forgot to change the IP addresses, doh. It's plugged into a C877 and I can see the port is up/up and I see the mac address using 'sh mac-address-table'. The ip address on the server is unknown but it's unlikely to be in the correct subnet for the vlan it's attached to.
Is there a way I can add an arp entry manually to the router, then ssh to the server and correct the ip address? Or is there some other way to establish the IP address of the server? It's gonna be a pain to revisit the office and there's no one there that can get into the server room to do anything from the console.

Though ASA5585-X S-20 and UCS C200 are not in LMS 4.0 supported device table, I'm wondering if there is any way to monitor these devices using LMS? Our data centre has a quite number of UCS C200 servers and two ASA5585-X S-20.

I have a Dell 7720 148285 SE notebook. I use Windows 7 x64 Professional Edition. I downloaded and installed all the latest drivers from Dell Support site. Unfortunatelly I have got a problem.I see an unknown USB device in my Device Manager. (I have not connected any USB device to my computer except one mouse, but this is recognised correctly.)url... recognised that I do not see anywhere my Bluetooth adapter. So I think might be that is the problem.I installed the following drivers:[code[
Of course I restarted the computer every time I installed a driver but the 'Unknown device' still remained url...noticed that if I turned of my wireless connection with the keyboard buttons: Fn + F2, then this Unknown device have been disappear. After I re-enable the wireless connection with Fn+F2 buttons, then I get this error message, and my 'Unknown device' is already show up.How should I install the Bluetooth driver correctly? And which driver should I use for that?

I have the WRT400N router with the latest firmware. Recently I have noticed a device in my DHCP that I do not recognize. It is not device I own (believe me, I have racked my brain and confirmed) as it shows as an Acer pc. I cannot ping the IP address however. I have rebooted my router several times thinking maybe it's a former connected device but saved in memory but it keeps coming back. I am thinking possibly it is someone hi-jacking my Internet, but not sure. I am using WEP security but it shows a LAN connection which is strange for a wireless device. The only hard wired pc is my HP.

After getting unusual IP conflicts on my laptop, I did a scan of my home network with a program called Zamzom and got the following results:On my Macbook I used a similar program and got more than 40 devices showing up: Neither program says which devices are active. The Mac results bring up BlackBerrys among other things. I upgraded my security from WEP to WPA2, but nothing changed. I use NOD32 and recently installed AdAware, which picked up a few things, but again, results are the same.

I found two unknown computers on my network (using Explorer). I have a wireless setup at home (private) with a desktop (wired), two laptops and a phone (wireless).The encryption is WPA2/TKP with a hard to guess password. The two unknown computers were connected this morning and a few minutes after I tried to access them and do some checks,they disappeared could they have been watching me? I didn't check the router page until then and of course, they weren't there.Also, yesterday I was at a coffee place, so could it be that this is nothing and those two computers are from people at the cafe? Is there anything I can do to make sure nobody can access my network, unless it's the computers I want. I haven't manually set up a home network yet. [code]

From Chrome when I try to download from a file sharing site I get "Unknown network error". And from firefox I get "source file could not be read". From internet explorer it just stops. The downloads don't even get halfway thew before failing. I didn't have this problem with this computer previously before I moved. I'm using the same access point and same internet connection. One thing I notice is that windows network center shows at times that I'm not connected to the internet but I'm still able to browse and use the internet. The disconnected icon only lasts for a few seconds in network center.So I think its some kind of settings or access point issue. Windows 7 64bit Ultimate service pack 1 My ISP is Suddenlink(cable) located in Louisiana. I'm renting their wireless router/cable modem. The Access point I'm using for the PC is trendnet TEW-430APB.My internet security is Bitdefender total security 2013?

I currently have a BT Home Hub 3 router and an Ubiquiti Power AP N.What I am trying to do is use the Ubiquiti access point as the main device for all connections in my house (ethernet and wireless) so that I can use the QoS settings etc. I basically want the Home Hub router to play as little role as possible in the network except for providing the ADSL internet connection.I know I need to enable DHCP on the access point but everytime I do so the devices connected to the access point lose internet connection.(BTW I have an ethernet cable connected from one of the routers LAN ports into the access point's WAN port)

We have a daisy-chain like network at my work involving various cobbled together parts such as Print Servers and switches. Today a random computer has appeared on our network with the name USER-U40PVRNHWL. We do broadcast a wireless signal, but it is password protected. I have done a complete sweep of the building and there are no extra pieces of hardware physically connected into our network.

I noticed two ip addresses reserved with DCHP on my home wireless. From IP addresses I can't seem to figure out who these belong to at home. All connected computers and devices are accounted for. Could these possibly be someone(s) hacking to my wireless to connect to internet? Or are these for modem setup, etc.?

I am in charge of taking care our small office network (about 25 PC's) and encountered a problem the other day. I got a call that nothing network related was working. I went to look at the switches/router and everything appeared fine. After some troubleshooting i found if i unplugged the switch and connected directly the the router everything worked prefect. Reconnected the switch, network goes down again. I assumed it was the switch at first but then did a walk around and a laptop was in a weird frozen state. I unhooked the network cable and everything started working away like it should.

I just recently got the internet and I have a desktop computer that has ever rarely been used and it has never had the internet on it. I called tech support of my ISP to see what many be the problem why I can't connect to the internet and found that the source of the problem was I do not have a LAN network connection. When I open Network Connections on the computer, nothing is there. I also went to device manager and there is nothing there for Networking. Under category of "Other Devices" in Device Manager there is a question mark next to "Ethernet Controller". Are there drivers or something I need download to fix this so I can connect to the internet via a DSL connection.
My computer specs are:
Windows XP Professional
Version 2002
Service Pack 2
[Code].....

I have a machine which is connected to a PC using an ethernet cable to communicate information between the machne and computer.I am told that the machine uses the MAC address to communicate and the computer just needs an ip address in the same range as the machine and software aware of the machine's MAC address. Why I can't connect it though the network, I tried the manufacturer who couldn't explain

my laptop can't connect to a wireless network, so I have to keep it in one room connected to the modem. When I unplug it, even with the wireless switch on, it loses the connection. When I use ConfigFree, it says the wireless network device is disabled. I went to device manager and updated the driver for the network adapter, and it still said it was disabled. What should I do now?
