You can always try blocking it and see what does not work? More than likely it some device on your network.

Change your 2.4GHz password and reboot the device. If it's still there I'm clueless if it's gone someone has your 2.4GHz password and is stealing your internet. Change it permanently.

I changed the password and the device is gone

But something that i can`t undertand is the IP adress that is set as static one and the range is way outside my dhcp limit ip

My range is from 192.168.0.10 to 192.168.0.150 the device is at 192.168.0.184

But i agree, the best solution is to change the password right?

Thanks, the strage here is that this one is set by static, i`m trying to realize what can be static here

I have my router locked to only the networks I have setup in my LAN. All my VLANs are separate networks and they are allowed outside. All other networks are blocked in the router. So no foreign IPs can flow outside to the internet.

I also block all DNS access except for my chosen DHCP DNS server. No rogue DNS servers are allowed out to the internet.

These are just good security practices to setup on a router.

Devices don't need to get IP address information from the router they are associated with in order to connect.

I often set a static IP on devices when testing and they connect just fine. When setting a static IP, you WANT to set an address outside the DHCP server scope, or you'll get an address collision.

Might be an iDevice or other SmartPhone coming out of sleep - recent SW releases do MAC randomization to protect some level of privacy before they establish trust - makes things a bit hard to debug...

Your DHCP scope is not related to what you are blocking. They are independent tasks. Your DHCP pool is just a pool of IP addresses to hand out which could be any private address or network. Blocking IP addresses or Mac addresses does not relate.
