Its simply the wireless module within the home hub that uses the Broadcom chipset, nothing to worry about. AP means Access Point.

  • Unknown device connected to my network

    I can see 2 devices listed in my home network that I cannot identify can anyone help with this? I do not have any linux device that I know of the listing s are :  udhcp-1-19-4-VDlinux and udhcp-1-7-2-28

    To add....
    Are these shown as connected via ethernet of wifi?
    Could you possibly disconnect ALL devices bar one laptop, refresh the hub manager home network page and reconnect the other devices one at a time, refresh after each device. You should then find the guilty devices.

  • Network Controller G580 (20157) - Unknown Device

    Hi,
    I have bought this Lenovo G580 (20157) laptop 2 years back. I had formatted my Laptop last night and installed Windows 7 Ultimate 32 Bit. Then i downloaded all the drivers from Lenovo Website. The Problem here is After installing all the drivers my Device Manager shows this YELLOW ICON as UNKNOWN DEVICE - NETWORK CONTROLLER. I tried all available options like trying to update the driver manually but still i am unable to find any solutions. I would really appreciate your effort on this which will be very helpful. 

    hi kalhemhtc,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    Can you try one of these drivers:
    Windows 7 - G580 (model 2689, 20157)
    Wireless LAN Driver (CyberTan, Liteon) for Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit) - G580 (2689, 20157)
    Intel Wireless LAN Driver for Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit) - G580 (2689, 20157)
    If the above drivers doesn't work, can you follow this guide on how to identify the network controller from its hardware ID.
    Article:
    G580 : Wireless adapter is missing message when connecting to WiFi
    Let me know how it goes.

  • My iphone 4s keeps coming up as unknown device since i upgraded to ios 7. it will not activate

    ive got an iphone 4s which worked fine before i upgraded to ios 7. now it is stuck at the activation screen because it keeps telling me my device is unknown. i have tried activating it over wifi and through itunes but no luck, itunes tells me that there is a problem with the device and to contact a service centre. it has an active sim card in and all worked fine before, now i have a very expensive paperweight and im getting very annoyed. apple want £25 just to talk to me which i am not paying as i think its ridulous that i have to pay for thier **** up. does anyone have any adive or had this problem before?

    Ok I just got pass the error CONNECT TO iTUNES and UNKNOWN DEVICE. I can not gurentee this will work for anyone else. This is what I did and it worked out:
    CONNECT TO iTUNES error
    1. I removed the sim card and put the device on charge for several hours, the display switch between the Apple logo and the connet to iTunes logo.
    2. I launched iTunes and connect the device to the computer while the display was on the Apple Logo (not connet to iTunes logo).
    3. I put the device in DFU while still on the Apple logo.
    4. I forced a deliberate error while attempting to restore by selecting a older iOS firmware (iOS 6) and click restore (I got the error, maybe this step does nothing but things changed from here).
    5.At this point the device remained in DFU mode and restored to the current iOS 7.0.4 firware.
    UNKNOWN DEVICE error
    6. After restore the device went into searching, at this point I put the the sim card into the phone
    7. Select Language and Country, the device error Unknow Device (this might be as far as you can go).
    8. I took the sim card out and let the phone rest.  After an hour or so the device completed the search and read No Sim.
    9. I put the sim card back into the phone  and the phone activated.
    I tried evething online and nothing worked. This is what worked for me. Hope this helps, good Luck!

    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    Error 13, 14, 35 and 50 (or -50)
    These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
    Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
    Try a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable.
    Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
    There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. An incorrectly set default packet size can cause this error. Contact the software manufacturer that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows:How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
    Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
    Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
    I hope this information helps ....

  • Unknown Device Event Type from a router

    Hi,
    I just included my first router within the reporting devices and decided to take a look at the raw events coming in to the MARS. To my surprise I see just two types of events :
    - Generic IOS syslog
    - Unknown Device Event Type
    This second one looks like SNMP because every message begins with "SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises." and seems to contain OIDs and data. Is this normal or am I having some kind of problem? The syslog messages seem to be interpreted correctly; in fact they generated a few incidents when there were some problems on one of the interfaces. I'm worried that the SNMP messages (traps?) are not being understood.
    Thanks for your help,
    Joe

    Yes, I realize that. Unfortunately I don't have access to the router and I'll have to ask what has been configured. I was wondering why MARS sees this data as raw events, if indeed they are SNMP traps. Does MARS listen on port 162 UDP?
    Thanks,
    Joe

  • Non CISCO unknown devices are being discovered in LMS

    Hi!
    I have had no problem with discovery which was used on cdp basis so far.
    Now the CDP packets do not arrive via new MPLS backbone network.  I have to use the "ping sweep feature in IP range" feature. I had to enter more than 400 subnet from file before there are more than 400 branches. ( etc. 10.31-9.1-50.252 255.255.255.252 )
    I have experienced two problems
    1. The discovery never end ( now this is not important ) :-)
    2. The common services -- device management shows discovered unknown devices whose ip addresses out side the range what are entered by me in the ping sweep range and theirs OID is not CISCO.
    (  1.3.6.1.4.1.2001.1.1.1.1  ,  1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.9.1  ,  1.3.6.1.4.1.674.10892.2  , 1.3.6.1.4.1.18334.1.1.1.2.1.7.1.2 and even more )
    Due to more than 300 unknown devices the LMS device number is beyond the license number!!!!!
    Our questions.
    Why does lms add the unknown devices ( non cisco devices ) to the inventory ?
    How could lms discover  these devices ??? ) ( theirs IP are out of ping sweep range and non cdp capable devices )
    Thanks in advance!

    Thank you!
    The unknown devices were in unreachable state and they were added to DCR.
    I don't use include or exclude filter what were referred by bug.
    In spite of i use seed device list from file the LMS ping sweep debug log shows that LMS try to ping other IP addresses!!!!
    You're right, it is not normally operation may be TAC will be needed to  solve it.
    ( whether who tested it ?)

  • T520 a lot of unknown devices

    Hello,
    I have T520 laptop, and device  manager shows me a lot of unknown devices (~50).
    If I try to update driver of any of them, then I got the message:
    Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it.
    siFilterIP GigE Vision Filter Driver
    Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service
    This is not a big deal, but it irritates me.

    Yes, you are right. I guess this should be a device in the laptop, that can receive a video stream from a network attached camera. I never connected such a camera directly to my computer, but I suppose I could connect my laptop to a network, which has one. Do you think this could be a problem? Now I start wondering, if my laptop is supposed to have such a device that can receive a video stream from network? If not, then situation is weird. Also I have VirtualBox installed, and it adds some network interfaces to host. Maybe this is some feature of VirtualBox, so I could stream video from my webcam to virtual machine? I should investigate this.

  • Several Unknown Devices after Windows 7 Home Premium Reinstall

    After losing all my data trying to encrypt my hard drive I reinstalled windows from my hard drive using HP's settings in the boot menu and got some weird results. One is that my C drive now only only has 65 gb of space, so I created a new partition with the remaining 215 gb on my hard drive. Additionally, my screen resolution has only 2 options, leaving my desktop looking strange. The worst of these problems is that several of my hardware items are showing up as unknown in addition to my wireless internet not working.

  • IPhone "Unknown Device" issue

    I picked up my iPhone 4 this afternoon and it had gone to a white screen and seemed stuck there.  It would not shut down.  It would not come back to life.  I did a cold reset and then connected to iTunes to restore my saved setup.  When I power up the iPhone, I get the usual new phone sequence up to and past the point at which I identify the wi-fi network to which I want to connect.  Then the train jumps the tracks.  The on-screen message in iTunes is "Unknown Device."  The phone displays an error message, although now I cannot recall exactly what it says.  You pros got any recommendations on this?

  • Unknown Device Event Type Adobe?

    Starting yesterday I have about 60 notifications that state "Unknown Device Event Type" and the packet was dropped inline. The majority of the Raw message starts out with....P...L...E.... and has ...Adobe..d...in the message body. Maybe Adobe sent out an update that is causing this? Different Source, Destinations and Ports in the notifications. No virus or spyware on the network that I can find.

    They're apparently IPS alarms? Take a look at the raw message and it should tell you the signature ID. Then look that up on mySDN.
