Netgear A6200 Wifi USB Adapter randomly connects to "nothing"

After a random time being online my wifi adapter connects to a nameless thing that isn't even an internet source. It connects to this and I would like to know how to fix if possible.

    While moderation takes a moment to make the image visible, please consider to use the dedicated WiFi Adapters community section, as this is completely unrelated to the Genie App.

    Hi JAHNSSOHN, 

     

    There an option on NETGEAR Genie to remove the network. What is the operating system of your computer? Can you compare the signal strength of your WiFi network and "nameless" network? Which one has the strong signal strength?
