2 connections on personal hotspot Odd problem here. I just turned on my hotspot and after a few minutes the blue ribbon is claiming that there are 2 connections. I am not at home, and my phone isn't hooked up to my computer.

When I saw that there were two connections, I fired up kali and monitored my network. Sure enough, there were two stations... with the same MAC address. 

How is this possible?
Apple devices using iOS8 (and presumably later) allocates random MAC when browsing hotspots to prevent phones being tracked. It is possible that some other device has already used that MAC.
