Shared drives?

[AceC]

Quick question - probably simple, but I don't understand it completely.

When I open Finder, on the sidebar under "Shared" is a location called "linksys."

I'm on my own network; is this something on my network? Or could it belong to one of my neighbors?

I'm unaware of what it is, but I was curious.

What kind of router do you have?

Netgear, but the old one was a linksys - the only connection I could think of.

Do you have an iOS device? "Fing" is a good, free network scanner app that will show you what is connected to your network.
