Unknown Netgear IP address on network (CG3000V2)

Thanks again. Understand. So back to the original problem, what is the device?
OK, a few things I did since. Logged in direct to router on web interface (192.168.0.1) and the questioned IP 192.168.0.5 is NOT there. (using either basic or advanced menu items for map)
Netgear Genie and Norton Network Map both refresh to have the device on IP 192,168.0.5 and the MAC id (did you want the specific one? It's only the last 1 position (2 characters) different than the Netgear CG3000V2.)
Do you know how the CG300V2 acts / reacts? as in does it create a "ghost" device?
Thanks in advance,
