Greetings

I can see some entity called RalinkLinuxClent when looking at my network

Should it be there?

is it part of the router or malware?

my firewall is enabled

thank you

@zivshosh 

this is exactly what I did: changed network name, changed router password to 20 characters

disabled service windows connect now (wcncsvc)

and when I looked at network it wasn't there but after refresh it reappeared...

my router is TP-LINK TD-W9970 and my tv is Sony Bravia so maybe RalinkLinuxClient is indeed part of the chipset of either router or tv

thank you
