If Feds call me and say something bad on you, it only prove one thing: Phone works.

What has changed is that now there's a pi 2 instead of a pi 1. Doesn't explain the entry in the Wireless Station list thing though.

The mac address checks out too for an Alcatel device.

You know kos, I had a similar issue come up when I had my laptop with me in a school. Windows indicated Alex's phone - but there was no Alex in the building.

It only lasted a few minutes then went away. Is it possible you are picking up someone's phone nearby?

Don't see how I'd be picking it up unless it was on the same network as me. (I'm at home, admittedly in a flat with people in all directions from me, but on my own network with a non-trivial wpa2 key)

Define non-trivial.

Didn't you root that phone?

Can't be bothered looking back, but have you turned off bluetooth on your laptop?

Yup.

If it wasn't for the first one showing up in my router config I'd happily believe it was just windows being odd. The weird thing is that all four devices have had different Mac addresses though. Very strange.

It's 4 totally different devices. Have any of your phones in the house shown up?

Feds.

Does it /they show up on something like this http://angryip.org ?

Yeah, if it was all one MAC address I'd just put it down to Windows being a dick.

Our phones have never shown up (Galaxy s4 and a Oneplus One). It's weird cos these things only show up for a second, if I refresh the page they disappear immediately.
