While looking through my messages log I came across the following entries and was wondering if I need to be concerned. I am not using either of the subnets listed and was wondering why they were showing up.

Thanks for you help and time.

Is eth1 your wireless NIC? Those could be responses from wireless access points that are close enough for your computer to "see."

Have you looked at some of the local networks to see what is available to you and if those address ranges match?
