Unknown devices on WiFi

I have the VM Hub 4 with two additional pods. I  recently logged on to the VM Connect app to re-name a new device and in addition to the expected devices noticed two other, unknown devices connected.  Screenshot attached.  I then logged onto the router and did not see these devices on the connected devices tab, although I did see my two pods listed.  Could these unknown devices be the Pods?  I have not noticed them before and the MAC addresses differ from the Pod MAC addresses   Any suggestions?

Could be device MAC randomisation, getting more common on newer Wifi devices.  Stops tracking by changing the MAC address of the device.

Do not pause unknown devices ... they may turn out to be your mobile or your office VPN.
