Unknown to router in the Network Infrastructure

Hello

There is a unknown router which is not mine not appearing in the Network Infrastructure.

I understand why it show up under available wireless networks. But not the network infrastructure.

I have not connected to it, is not my router, and it is not there. It is a little disconcerting, to say the least.

Here is a screenshot:

Cisco Wireless VPN router - N is mine.

WNR1000v2 isn't.

Is this a security risk? Why is this, and how do I get rid of him?

Thank you.

OK so I would like to know what criteria determines why a router is listed in the network infrastructure... and how to get rid of him?

Why is windows 7 this? It makes no sense at all...

Can't really answer. I can only say that turning on the Details view for the page shows that the alien router isn't listed in my network location. A network infrastructure device is that in theory I 'could' connect to research a little further into the router configs (properties because it gives model, series No, MAC address and unique identifier #) indicates that the owner has set up to use WiFi Protected Setup to allow wireless devices to connect (requiring a fixed number of pine).  So, if I had the PIN to the router, I was able to connect to its network. Maybe that's why it appears. If your mystery router is configured in the same way, this could be a further indication as to why these routers being listed in the title of the Network Infrastructure while all other neighboring routers are not.

  • Why are there two routers listed in the Network Infrastructure?

    I have a Linksys WRT54G2 router, but sometimes when I look at my network in the control panel it shows an extra router, that router ghost appears in the title of the Network Infrastructure. It's a WRT160N. Sometimes it's there, sometimes it isn't.

    I have Windows 7.

    Why this is part of my network? Should I be worried? How can I stop it arise?
    Here is a screenshot of the problem:

    Hey DavidVX,

    I found a few other similar topics you can check below:
    On a thread, the user was able to match the MAC address of the window of the Network Infrastructure to an open wireless network (unprotected) nearby. This seems to be the case for multiple threads, I found elsewhere on the internet.
    Given that I have found so many other similar threads on the same issue, I would consider it is safe and I would just ignore it.
    If I find a solution to them, I'll let you know!

  • RalinkAPS wifi chipset appears in the network infrastructure

    I just noticed a device appear in my 'Network Infrastructure' called RalinkAPS. I didn't have it there a week, I've been doin a little bit of research and it could be the chipshet of wifi on my router?

    The router is a Thomson/Technicolor TG585 v7; or would it be an ad-hoc link somehow to the router?

    Hello

    The APS Ralink is a WiFi chipset on the router.

    RALink chipsets are used in various consumer-grade routers made by Gigabyte Technology, Linksys, D-Link, Asus and Belkin, as well as adapters Wi - Fi for USB, PCI, Express Card interfaces, PC and PCI Express cards.

  • Additional router appears in "Network Infrastructure".

    Hi people,
    When I open Windows Explorer in Windows 7 and go to the 'network', I have a list of
    computers, multimedia devices and infrastructure network in front of me. In particular, an extra router
    Figure (not mine). I have never connected to any other network without wire in addition to mine. In fact, I
    (1) renamed my SSID
    (2) made my hidden SSID
    (3) changed my WPA2 password
    4) changed the password of my router
    It's still there. I have no idea why. It lists a Belkin (not mine) router and a Linksys router (which
    is mine).

    You also see it on the network map? What is show as connected to?

    What do you see, if you open and administrative cmd prompt and run

    netsh wlan show all

  • Wrt1900acs nine installed today - peripheral unknown offline appearing in the network map

    Installed my new wrt1900acs today, began to connect devices, signed for the Smart Wifi Linksys. The network card correctly displays all connected devices, but there is a mystery device appear offline. I have used Parental controls to block access to this device until I can find more.

    How would a device appear? It should be linked at some point?  The new router has only been for 3-4 hours.  I connected only 2 laptops, a desk and a phone to iOS. Have not connected my non - iOS wifes phone still.  There are also 2 other routers and networks connected to the same Comcast modem.

    The mystery device is presented as "generic device" with only a name and a MAC address.  I was able to remove, but did not know if there was a simple explanation for it.

    Yes it should have been connected or on the network at any given time.

    Use the clear network adapter icon in the top-right corner of the user interface to allow the map to regenerate. I could take a few minutes.

  • Unknown devices appear on the network?

    Hello. I just bought an E900 and I make TVs and phones on the network, which i haven´t connected. They don t appear in the DHCP list, and I've changed the SSID and password and restarted the router and the PC. They do or see when running - an arp. As soon as I connect my old router that these devices disappear and Don t appear again until I have plug the Linksys. PC is clean, antivirus and anti-malware.

    It also seems that the Linksys forces my G930 to reconnect, that didn t happen with my old router (Belkin F7D2301 V1).

    (Until I got a TP - Link TL - WR941ND V4 that reconnects, who was one of the reasons why I've changed for the Belkin.)

    Any ideas?

    Hello Jay_D.

    I just tried again. Factory reset the router again. Changed the SSID and password in a totally different frame then seized. I even changed the Routername. Always get devices in the network.

    Devices to disappear and reappear again after a short period. However, that TV Bravia disappeared and hasn´t again, phones are still there and now I even got a few Phillips TV showing. The TV only I have is a Toshiba, and doesn´t even have a network card.

  • expert s view on the network infrastructure

    Hello people!

    I would ask the view to configure the topology of a network to the next requirements:

    -J' have two sites: the headquarters and data center site.

    -In the seat, I have a cisco ASA 5510

    -The requeriments of device of the site data center (not yet acquired) are:

    -> The network interfaces three to form a demilitarized zone. a single interface would be connected to WAN, other would be connected to the DMZ and the last would be connected to the internal LAN.

    -> This device must allow connections for mobile users.

    -> A connection VPN site-to-site must be authorized from Headquarters.

    -Requeriments of the security are:

    -> VPN, connections are allowed with the direction to the DMZ.

    --> Traffic between the internal machine to DMZ and LAN ports are allowed.

    --> Traffic from the internet to ports 80/443 of a DMZ machine is allowed.

    -High availability data center website.

    For now, I'm worrying about the site to site VPN connection:

    A single point to point VPN with Gre over IPSEC, the use of static routing would be a good solution?

    Someone told me that the ASA 5520 device in the data center site is the best option, what is your opinion about that?

    I have seen software SDM to configure the device, is sufficient to set up the device with the requeriments or CLI is better?

    Thank you for your comments!

    If you use the gre with static route you can do or any dynamic routing you can make up the tunnel always

  • Returns a route with the network data model

    Hi all,

    I like to read (on Chapter 11 of "Pro Oracle Spatial for Oracle Database 11g" manual) is it possible to receive the direction of travel of the computation of the path more runs using the routing engine.

    I want to ask you: is possible to receive the sense of the market by using the network data model? (for example, by using the Java API).

    Thank you in advance.

    Hello

    NDM API manages only the paths to the topological level. i.e. path of nodes and links. It generates no routes since the paths.
    You must use information Street links to generate driving directions yourself. You may need to use the sign post information as well as information geometry (towers from left to right) for directions.

    You can also use (API XML that uses the NDM API as its scan engine!) of the motor routing service Oracle to generate your itineraries which will include directions.

  • E4200 PC connects to the router and the network home and says its connected to the internet but wont

    Hello

    I have an E4200 and upgraded to the Cloud Connect. It was buggy, and so I went down to the firmware before that.  I have all the computers works well in the House except my office.  It connects to the network, he can see the other computers on the network can still do a windows update. But when I go to use google chrome or internet explore it just won't connect to the internet.  Has anyone already experienced this? It does not work either if it's a wired or a wireless connection, it was fine before the upgrade downgrade and following. It is on this desk that I installed and uninstalled cloud connection thew.  I know enough to set up the network, but when it does not work... .so I'm lost for what to do. Help, please!

    I did a restore of the system to a point before I upgraded to Cisco Connect Cloud, and that did the trick. Thank you for your willingness to help. All is well now.

  • Connect wireless router by the network to the gateway switch

    I have a wireless router is connected to a network switch that is connected to our gateway to Comcast. Devices connected to the wireless router can access the internet without any problem. However, some workstations connected to the switch receive an ip address in the range of the router (192.168.1.x). They cannot access the internet. Is it still a router problem or is it a problem to switch?

    The only way to devices connected to the switch can Gets an IP address from the server DHCP of ROUTER2 is if you have the LAN of ROUTER2 port connected to the switch instead of the WAN port.

    What router model Linksys do you have?

  • Windows cannot create the network map. Responses of the other devices on the network are delayed or on the network, there is a router incapatible

    Original title: no network card
    I installed a NETGEAR N300 Wireless USB Adapter on my computer which is a desk top Dell 64-bit running Windows 7 Edition Home Premium. There are five computers on my network. Two of the others use the same model of NETGEAR wireless USB adapt. I removed the Ethernet cable after the installation of the wireless adapter. I can say that the new wireless adapter works fine. When I tried to map the network I got the same message that appears in some of these problems: "Windows cannot create the network map. Responses of the other devices on the network are delayed or there is a router on the network incapatible". I have restarted this computer in SafeMode as suggested in the above problems. I tried other things like disabling the wired connection has always existed for the cable. No effect. Then I tried mapping the network on the other computers. All failed with the same message. All the other four computers are 32-bit. Three of these computers are also running Windows 7 Home Premium. They are the best desktop computers. The other computer is a Windows 7 Starter netbook running. It is the 32-bit computer, always using a cable. That will be replaced with the same wireless adapter model NETGEAR. Anyone know how to fix this or is this a bug? It would be nice of the network software of Windows 7 has worked as it is supposed to. TO.

    I went the last wired wireless computer and the problem disappeared. The five computers can view the map now without any problems.

    Right.

    After the installation of the Network Infrastructure, I can create an ASM instance to create groups of ASM disks for data files. Right?

    If you have not configured the DSO during installation, you can use ASMCA to create and config instance ASM.

  • Risky to allow access to the network storage and LAN VM?

    What kind of risks could we be exposing our storage network to if we had to assign a VM with network cards on the LAN and SAN?

    Hello

    Moved to the security forum.

    The operating risk is quite minimal.

    Not quite true. iSCSI and NFS protocols are clear! So, it would be possible to do a number of things (ARP Cache poisoning comes to mind) to allow the storage of data flow to a compromised host. A colleague recently made a demo just that. It's actually pretty trivial to do with the right tools.

    The surface of attack before being reduced by limiting the number of machines that extend over these networks.

    That's right, the upper limit of this should really be 0 however for better security. Not only that, if the SAN is really an iSCSI server, this server may be used to attack the service console depending on how the supreme court was also connected to the storage network. You have now increased possible points of attack for the SC of 1 or more.

    You also want to ensure that the network is not routed, while the network is not available from other machines not directly connected to the San.

    Altogether.

    The risk that you open is that an admin would have access to data storage.  That's what you try to avoid.

    If the host which can extend over your LAN and SAN is compromised, then it might be possible for ALL users on the system to get the storage data when it runs on the San.

    The best solution is that if you have a virtual machine or server that fills these networks that they fill in fact to an IP storage device that is not used by ESX hosts, the only exception to this might be the VCB Proxy, but you need to ensure as well if not better than your ESX hosts themselves. Make sure that it is in a protected space, etc.

  • Suggestions to connect a new router to the Modem to an ISP


    Quite true for some ISPS like Insight.  Before Comcast took over in the box of my son, he had to go through a documented process of insight to connect any other device (router) Insight to the cable modem.  My experience with RoadRunner TimeWarner/Brighthouse when you connect a new router to their cable modems has been that they will assign a new IP address to the new router and will retain the previous pair of IP/MAC address of my router for 30 days before the purge of their DHCP database.  It is very convenient when I setup the router for my friends and then reconnect my router to the network and get my original IP address assigned.  Once I finished the configuration of the router from my friend and connected to its network access, I contact Brighthouse to let them know that they can release the IP address assigned to the router of my friend.  Not all ISPS is more conciliatory than TimeWarner/Brighthouse in this area.

    I also take advantage of this "ability" to Brighthouse when I test backup WRT54G at my new WiFi E3000 router on a periodic basis.

    In short, always contact your ISP to see what procedures must be followed when you want to connect another router to the modem.
