✦Grammar Breakdown
Essagtden Gerätenwelches Netzwerkdeinsist
Verb position
In a main clause the finite verb (sagt) occupies the second position.
Dative plural
"den Geräten" is dative plural, used because the verb "sagen" takes an indirect object.
Relative clause
The part "welches Netzwerk deins ist" is a relative clause introduced by the interrogative pronoun "welches".
Possessive pronoun "deins"
"deins" is a possessive pronoun that stands alone after the noun; it replaces "dein Netzwerk".
Comma rule
German requires a comma before a subordinate clause, hence the comma after "Geräten".

✕Common Mistakes
Es sagt den Geräten, welches Netzwerk dein ist.
After the noun you need the standalone possessive pronoun "deins", not the attributive "dein".
Es sagt die Geräten, welches Netzwerk deins ist.
"Geräten" is dative plural, so the article must be "den", not "die".
Es sagt den Geräten welches Netzwerk deins ist.
A comma is mandatory before the subordinate clause.

Cultural Tip
German often places the indirect object in the dative case, even when the English equivalent would use "to". Also, possessive pronouns like "deins" can stand alone after the noun, a structure that sounds natural in German but may feel odd to English speakers.
