Hello Lovealoha
It sounds strange but it could for some reason have mac address of old devices that have connected to the router in the past saved in the modem. I would try to factory reset again make sure you hold the reset button for at least 10 seconds.

Mahalo (thank you) for your reply.
Appreciate you taking the time to comment, however, from my original post, you can see that i have already reset router back to factory. assigned new logon password, and a new SSID/Password. Disabled WPS...etc. (see original post)
Any other ideas?
Please keep in mind that currently, both computers have thier wireless disabled. when i turn on the wireless on the router (only), the device(s) that i have never owned begin to appear..only within the windows file explorer.
I look forward to your reply.
