WNDR4500V3

Does anyone know how a Freelace digital picture frame would show up on the list of devices that have access to my wifi router? I am seeing this device with what looks like an Android (Andr) preface. I am very ignorant about all of this. 

Thanks

    The WNDR4500V3 is so old (2015 based on an original from 2013) that it does not support things like the Nighthawk app which would help you to check that sort of thing.

     

    There is the old genie app for mobiles, but Netgear killed that some time ago. It may still be out there in the wild, but probably not foe inexperienced users.

    any of your devices (such as an apple device) using private mac/ip address?

    Many of them are coming default with that and the random mac's can show up as strange devices sometimes. 

    You should be able to compare the IP address with the device with that address.
