Do you have sky q and mini boxes?

If so the hidden network could be channel 36 on your 5ghz wifi band. This is a dedicated wifi channel for communication with sky q mini's.

Also roku and amazon fire sticks make use of hidden channels

Also if you google mac address decoder and enter the mysterious mac addresses it should tell you the manufacturer
