because I was worried it was privacy-related, I was worried that it meant 6 devices are connected to my Wi-Fi which I should be the only person connected to right now. But based on everyone's responses, it looks like that number 6 is a pretty damn good thing and not a bad scary privacy concern thing at all.
Just use a search engine and type "wifi icon number 6"
Yeah but then google will tell you to microwave your glue and eat it.
Search engines suck. I'd rather talk to real people, I mean anyone but you.

I typed in the exact words I would type if I had your question and the first three results were the answer you were looking for.
How can "search engines" suck any less than this?
No need for personal attacks btw. cheers
