Mystery Xboxes
My Nighthawk app shows two devices connected to Wifi that are listed as Xbox Consoles. I don't have an Xbox but I assume these are other devices I have connected that aren't showing such as my wife'...
You could compare the mac addresses or the IP address to the devices on your network.
It wouldn't be the first time the attached devices list has mis-identified a device.
Thanks for the quick response. Unfortunately the IP addresses don't match up with either laptop currently connected (192.168.1.2 is showing as an Xbox and the laptops are showing .3 and .5 The MAC address doesn't match the physical address showing on either laptop. I really don't know what I'm looking at though as I just followed instructions on another website on how to locate the MAC address on a Windows computer. These two devices must be our laptops as they don't show up on the list of other devices.
