Default wi-fi security question

Yes wrote:
Is there a CLI command I can use to identify what devices are currently
in use on my router (it has both ethernet and wi-fi)?

I notice that the LED light for the wi-fi is very active even though
the two wi-fi devices I have (TV and cell phone) are turned off. I've
already looked at the web page for the router. It listed devices but
didn't seem to list what devices are currently using the wi-fi
connection.

Thanks,

John


Why not Google the make and model number of the router,
and find out how many back doors it's got ? Maybe your
router is tipped over or something.

I would be Googling about the hardware, just to see what is
known about it.

I remember my first ADSL modem, I happened to Google
that a few weeks after getting it, and the damn thing
was "Swiss Cheese", with multiple exploits detected
by a university researcher. But these were plugged by
the ISP (telco) pushing out patches as soon as a
new customer is "plugged in". It's the issues they don't know
about, that you have to watch.
