New device has joined my network

I've received 3 notifications this afternoon saying a new device has joined my network. Is this a problem?

Can't do a screenshot as the support page isn't working. I in fact received 3 alerts within 5 minutes each saying a new device has joined your network but naming 3 different devices - BSKyB Ltd, Intel and Szenzhen Gonglin Electronics Co.,Ltd. Does that help?

Hello Paulk, 

Please check whether below link works for you to take screenshot.

Can you please confirm whether you are using Wi-Fi network?
Do you get alert from any AVG program or from the PC notification menu?
Do you aware of the device name which shows in that notification?

Keep us updated.
