Problem(s) with Devices and PC wireless networking

$

I have two PC's connecting to the Internet via my Dlink router and thence via a Motorola Adaptor.

The name of the router is "Dlink" which - at this time - has no security (to come later).

The iPads and two other iPhone5's continually connect to an unknown wireless connection called Dlink8a4b, which I have never heard of!

I have turned the router OFF numerous times, pulled it's plug out, pressed the reset button likewise and also the discovery button!

When I go to the Devices x General x Networking etc. and tap on this latter WiFi connection, I do not get the prompt to "Forget This Network". There are NO details at all on this connection - IP address etc - and there seems no way to get rid of it. It is locked and requires a password!

I have been all over the PC's Network and Sharing Centre but it says the Dlink is working fine so where has this other wretched one come from and how can I get it vanish and my Dlink reappear as it has been doing happily for years!!!!!

I have tried turning off the devices, resetting the Network Settings and most everything I can think of but no matter what I try this rogue wireless connection continues to be there all the time - driving me nuts!

Any help appreciated!
