Hi samething
You say you have the same issue. Do you mean you have a device you can not identify shown in Circle but not as a connected device on the router? If so, is it identified as a LG device in Circle?

I see a device (called Kath's Iphone) on the Circle network that is not a connected device on the router.

Hi again DexterJB
I got some time to look at this some more. I have found out that this has to be my LG Urbane Android Wear watch since the device is gone when I connect to Circle away from home not being connected to my home network. What is odd is that the device shows up even when I turn off the watch and disable wi-fi on This is why I didn't think it was the watch initially. Now I think the watch connection may be up somehow through the Andrdoi Wear app on my phone even when the watch itself is off. I can not test this without my phone since I need it to check Circle. I will try to install Circle on another phone and see if the LG connection then is gone in Circle.
Regardless, this device should not show up on Circle in the first place. It doesn't show on my router and there's never any traffic registered for it. Circle should ignore such connections just like the router does. Rember that this device never shows up on the R7000.
