WLAN0 Tuya Connected Randomly to My Networks

[Pop9]

As stated, this device read only connected to my network. I searched the MAC address of 18:69:D8:4F:78:2B and it says manufactured by Tuya. I have no clue what this device is though. Any insight would be appreciated.

Do a web search on the mac addresss and that brand name. 

What NG product are you using? 

[Pop9]

Sorry, do what exactly?

[Pop9]

Are you meaning my RBR750?

[FURRYe38]

OH there it is. Thank you.

What happens if you change the wifi SSID name and PW to something else temporarily. Does that MAC address and device still appear? 

Change back after checking this. 

Do a web search on the brand name you find.

got some smart devices? Tuya is platform for smart devices. I've got a couple on my network. I think lightbulbs or switches that use it.

I do. But this one randomly connected at 4 in the morning which is throwing me off because I didn’t do anything at that time.

Maybe one of the IoT devices updated its firmware in the background?

It was a smart bulb that, I am guessing, decided to update itself in the middle of the night and reconnect itself. Thank you all for the input!!

Glad you got it figured out!
