I want to add my own experience, because the explanation is completely other than one would expect. I set up a new, more advanced Linksys Router (EA6300) and I started seeing this unknown Android device, many instances of it with the same device name but different (but similar) MAC addresses. And sometimes the router indicated it was on the WLAN, other times on the LAN (which was impossible). The MAC address varried but the first half was the same (00:E0:4C:*:*:*). So, I'm thinking it is either a glitch, or some bizarre hacker using multiple sophisticated techniques to hack into my network for no very good reason.

I started by banning the MAC addresses, but as it kept changing, that was pointless. So then I set up an exclusive MAC allowed list (which is one of those things you snobs say is pointless to do). The unknown Android device stopped showing up. But then I noticed. My tablet stopped connecting.
It was my tablet! The freaking thing generates a new MAC address every time you reboot it! Why would this be an intentional feature?! It wouldn't help with anything. Although in a way it would make for good anonymous network use. But it just seems absurd!
Could it be a glitch? This is a no-name tablet (ematic), but that's a hell of a glitch, but also a hell of a strange feature! I have the same issue. I need to know safe or not.
I am having issues finding my MyCloud device using a browser. I have successfully installed and am able to see my MyCloud files using my iphone and ipad and can open the MyCloud app on my PC but I cannot access using my browserI have gone through the step of entering my devices MAC address and I am updated to the latest firmwareI have also made sure the uPnP is enabled on my router.
Bluetooth Keeps Searching For Device
I have changed my wireless security password, wpa, reset modem to factory, clean install on my window 10 machines. I see devices that I do not own, they have not had IP addresses per DHCP reservations.
Searching For Device Driver
I see the manufacturer and MAC address. Randomly appear and if I click on them they disappear for a while.
They are not some device that I own - phone called angler and shamu and a Linux box (and if this is you pls tell me how you do it then stay off my network) I see them File explorer>network but not by looking on router. I have one wireless printer and disconnect all other devices like blue-ray player that links to internet. I was told by help desk from antivirus/firewall provider to turn off network discovery and will solve my problem but I think it doesn't solve it but I don't see it (which may be OK). Which I think may be correct if I was on public network like at university but I question the answer on small home network. None of the solutions listed in post fix or fit my network.
