Phone showing up in windows 10 network

[crostiger]

So i noticed there is a phone named full_gminfo36_ga that shows up in my network on my windows 10 computer on a couple other computers I have checked it is not there but they are not 10. And it seems to come and goes at will. The model and model number is gminfo36. When it shows up it only has a mac address no IP. I have ran every scan I have and doesn't come up with anything. When it appears it is also no in the router.

If you leave Bluetooth discovery enabled (I can't actually remember if you can on 10 these days) then it may show devices in range.

Bluetooth is turned off was also wondering if this is something I should worry about or not or if it's just windows being funny.

There's a reddit thread on this theorising that its a Harman Kardon smart speaker trying to connect to random networks for some reason.

I just had this same entry popup.  I think it's related to GM cars (I have a Chevy Bolt EUV about 20 feet from where I sit).
