I swore my home network was fine until a weird device showed up in my router's list
I was checking my router in Chicago last month and saw a 'SmartTV_2' connected, but we only have one. I changed the Wi-Fi password that night and now check the device list every Sunday. Has anyone else had a random device pop up like that?

My mom had something similar happen with her Roku stick where it kept showing up twice in the device list, turned out to be a glitch after a firmware update. Maybe it's just me but I'd rather change the password anyway, better safe than sorry with all the smart home stuff these days. Idk, sometimes those random devices are just weird naming overlaps from the manufacturer but it's still unsettling to see.
