Unknown MAC / IP addresses and device
I've got an unconfirmed device listed in my network monitoring app. It has MAC and IP addresses that I can't identify, so I can't determine who owns this device. So, I don't know if it's one of my devices or someone has wormed their way into my Wi-Fi. It's online occasionally. Is there any way to determine what this actual device is? The MAC address is 22:8D:4F:AF:2B:38. The network monitoring app says it's a mobile, the vendor is android-dhcp-10, the brand is Google and its model / version is Android 10. It also says that the DHCP params (whatever they are??) are 1, 3, 6, 15, 26, 28, 51, 58, 59, 43. On the network monitoring app devices summary page the model and name fields are empty. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Review all devices currently connected to your Wi-Fi network via your router’s admin interface. Look for any device matching the MAC address 22:8D:4F:AF:2B:38 or with similar vendor details.
I've already done that. It shows a * in the "Host Name" field, everything else listed is the same as the info in the network monitoring app.
