Okay, the broadband I am currently using goes very slow every time I am using my Samsung S5 on the broadband.

So I decided to check what was connected. I found the phone and two other Devices named:

android-345b8bf63a1e0f6

and

android-1db91206469417aa

the S5 uses android.


What are these?. Is this what could be hogging the Wifi?.

Thanks for replies.

It could be someone next door or nearby using your Wi-Fi connection if it's unsecured or only secured with a WEP key which is not hard to "crack" if you know how.

Change your wireless encryption to WPA or WPA2, set a strong key (ie a mixture of uppercase & lowercase letters, and a few numbers in between. Then check your network map again.
