A router’s device list shows MAC addresses, which look like random hex and behave like laundry tags: the prefix is registered to a manufacturer. That prefix tells you whether the unknown device is a phone, a speaker, or a question mark.
Enter a MAC address and find its registered vendor from an embedded OUI database. It is the first step of “is that my printer” and the standard way to make sense of a stranger at the edge of your Wi-Fi.
