Strange device
I'm trying to find out a device that's connected to my router. There's five devices identified but the fifth is saying "unknown". Is it possible a neighbour is somehow accessing the WiFi?

Lloyds Bank security message not fit for purpose?
You can't proceed with the transaction unless you tick the boxes, and agreeing appears to be contingent upon having had a scam call... (and there are also scam scenarios other than a call where you can be asked to move money.) To be kind, perhaps it was written by AI ..if so we're doomed!
