My problem is, an unknown device, Samsung S7, that is connected to my network, that I didn't authorize.

"The issue is, I just activated the Advanced Security and within half an hour, I have received 5 security threats of unauthorized attempts and 3 IP Reputation hits."

 

We've seen many many posts about this here lately ! The work-around is to disable the Advanced Security and not use it for now, it's buggy.;

Their Advanced Security feature has recently been pushed to their gateway devices via a firmware update whether you want it or not, hence the hypochondriac notices.
