Hello,
My router is displaying two SSID's/router names when I search for available networks on my laptop. One is "Jimswifi" which displays as Secured and the other is "Jimswifi 2" which displays as Open. The open network (Jimswifi 2) does not display for long and disappears when I connect to the secured network (Jimswifi) or after a few minutes has passed. If I do connect to the Open network, it does not actually ever let me connect to the internet.
I'm fairly sure the open network originates from my router as it disappears when I turn off the router. Further to this, the open network does not always appear, and it only shows up when I turn on my laptop and router at the same time. The open network also does not show up on my smartphone as an available network.
Do I have anything to be concerned about?
