Mac Network Destop Icon in Finder

Hi, Suddenly, I saw an network option in Finder and when I click on, one of the desktop is there. But, I didn't connect to any network, No idea, how it has appeared here or what does this mean.


Can anyone help me, how can I remove this desktop network from my mac?

I have an "unknown" item too.


A while back I attached external storage to my router but found it far too slow for general use. I detached the external drive.


What I didn't do was reset the router setting that allowed the use of the drive, so the icon still shows.


I chose to ignore it. One day when the router needs replacing, it'll be fixed but it's just not worth the effort now.


My guess is you have a similar situation.
