Ghost Wireless SSID

I would post a picture of Inssider 3, but I can't find the info to do that.  I have an unidentifed SSID exactly like my named SSID.  It has the same signal strength, data download, etc.  The only difference is the Mac address.  The legit SSID starts with C8 and ends with 51.  The ghost mac address starts with CA and ends with 53.  All the in-between characters are the same.  I have deleted profiles, etc, but cannot find what is causing this.  Anyone have a clue?  Everything seems to be working fine.  I have unplugged my bridge router, so I know it is coming from my main router.

 

One thing that might be a clue:  I recently did a reset on my main router and had a typo in the SSID name.  I later changed the SSID name using the router Smart WiFI.  I had deleted the incorrect profile using dos.  However, when in Smart WIFI, I saw the incorrect SSID listed in the Device List.  I edited and changed it, but cannot delete from there.  It also showed up in the Device Manager/show hidden devices under Network Infrastucture.  I keep deleting it but it keeps coming back.  Do I have to reset my router again?
