Random device connected, should I be worried?

It seems a random device connected to my spacedesk. I don’t recognize the device at all through its name or IP. But I don’t have ports forwarded or anything like that so how could the device connect? On my router I can only see my Switch, PC and phone connected. I don’t use a VPN or any virtual adapters. Is this a bug or could someone somehow connect to me?

Hi @linus-2,

Only devices connected to your local network should be able to connect to your Primary PC via spacedesk. You can check if any unknown device connected to you via spacedesk by checking the Driver Console under the previously connected devices section. For additional security, you can turn on “Password Protection and Encryption” in the spacedesk Driver Console.
