Help identify unknown "network" device

Yesterday I identified 2 unknown devices on my router, they are labeled as "network" & I cant find any information online. I ran the mac addresses & nothing. Also, what is a "network" connection???

    How? Nighthawk App? Are they there in the attached devices for your unnamed router?

    Something connected to your router's local network. In your case, by wifi.
