@user_pc2qlk From a Google search;
Why is it on your network?
  • Your Internet Router/Gateway: Many major Internet Service Providers (like T-Mobile Home Internet) use routers and gateways manufactured by Askey. If Askey shows up as the primary gateway or router, it is simply the hardware powering your Wi-Fi.
  • Other Smart Home Equipment: Askey manufactures Wi-Fi components, 5G hot spots, and IoT products for various tech brands.
    T-Mobile +3
What to do
If you do not own an Askey device but it appears in your app or network scanner, it is almost always just your ISP-provided modem or router communicating
. If you want to verify what the device is doing, you can:
T-Mobile
  1. Copy its MAC address and check the vendor using a site like MAC Address Lookup to see its exact hardware classification.
  2. Check your router's Connected Devices admin page.
    MAC Address Lookup +1
If you are concerned about unauthorized access, you can secure your network by changing your Wi-Fi password or enabling MAC address filtering.
