- Nontechy4Aug 14, 2020TutorI do not own an ISP router. I purchased my own. I did not set up a network and have my settings for not visible. I checked the visible box and saw this. I do not have a media server. During this login I had a laptop connected to router. No loT devices. It was alarming to me.
