Hello TP-Link community,

I'm reaching out because I've discovered an unfamiliar TP-Link range extender device appearing on my Tether app My Device List on the first page. I did not set up or add this range extender myself.

The strange thing is, this unknown TP-Link device only shows up when I'm using my mobile data network, not when I'm connected to my home WiFi. When I switch back to my home WiFi, the device disappears from the list.

When I try to click in to this "local device" on the TP-Link homepage, it redirects me to a link that seems suspicious and does not match the official TP-Link domain. This has raised some serious security concerns for me.

I'm worried this unknown range extender may have been added to my network without my knowledge or consent, possibly when I'm using mobile data. Has anyone else experienced something similar, with an unrecognized TP-Link device showing up in their network under certain connectivity conditions?

I want to ensure the integrity and security of my home network. Can anyone provide insight on what this unknown range extender could be, and how I can properly investigate and address this issue? 

Any advice or shared experiences from the community would be greatly appreciated. I'm eager to understand what's going on and resolve this potential security concern.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Best regards,
Damien
