Looking at devices that show up in my wireless network, one of the 2 wifi home computers (main one on cable), I get this result: http://www.coffer.com/mac_find/?string=2C-D0-5A-2F-FD-6B vendor: Liteon Technology Corporation.
The Win 8.1. laptop is an Acer, hanging in a virtal DHCP environment, hybrid node type, Wireless Lan Adapter MS Wifi-Direct-Virtual Adapter, DHCP enabled, Autoconfig enabled, Physical address 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-E0 Tunnel adapter lan *14
DHCPv6 IAID etc. Netbios over Tcpip disabled Qualcom Atheros AB5BWB222 DNS servers 192.168 etc. DHCPv6 IAID etc.
Has this device been compromised or was the NIC made by that Korean firm as the Acer Laptop has Broadcom on?
I think nothing wrong there, but just want to be sure. Do I have to deny that Mac-address? Anyone?
Activated Avast’s Network Security.
Lite-on has to do with the controller of that specific Acer laptop - 02:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Qualcomm Atheros QCA9565 / AR9565 Wireless Network Adapter [168c:0036] (rev 01)
Subsystem: Lite-On Communications Inc Device [11ad:0642]
Checked - no hack - Wireless Network Watcher alerts the right McCoy. Just like our forum friend, Para-Noid, always repeats: “Only trust what you have checked yourself”.
Anyways learned quite a bit, by checking.
Thanks to all of my forum friends for your continuous inspiration and avast for the platform.
