When I click on "Internet Access" Icon on the taskbar, I see a list of user names that I do not know. Does this mean these users are getting a free ride on my wifi? Also I find my laptop wakes up from sleep on its own and I wonder if its related to this issue?

This has been happening recently every time I boot up. Sometimes its "Not connected - No connections are available" or it can be "Network Internet access" when it is connected. It goes when I double click the network icon but that isn't really a solution as it shouldn't get stuck there in the...
