    Are visible access points on my network?

    When I do a Windows Network Diagnostic check, my list of visible access points (BSSID) show 18 items, some of which are on the same channel frequency. Are all of these in my home network? My own router, a combo modem/router displays a slightly different BSSID than what is on the device.
