This started recently, and I do not know of any changes. I have done the Microsoft updates, but other than that, no network changes, no added devices.&nbsp;

Do you have the Netgear destop genie installed on your Windows PC?
&nbsp;
These devices are, as the name says,&nbsp;Media Servers. They can show up when you have DLNA enabled. Is your&nbsp; R6220 configured to&nbsp; act as a ReadyDLNA media server?

Under the Basic tab, USB Storage, Media Server:&nbsp;The Media Server Name is ReadyDLNA. None of the boxes are checked, I.e. &nbsp;Enable Media Server and Enable iTunes Server, they are not checked.&nbsp;The radio button, Content Scan, is checked.

&nbsp;
If I disable the Media Server, "Content Scan" is also disabled.
&nbsp;
Is there any other DLNA server on your network?
&nbsp;
What about the Netgear genie. Is that installed?
