The account activity pop up shows three rows which are starred (*).
A starred-row shows activity from current session.
How can there be 3 activity from same session? I logged in around 10:30, which is shown in the 3rd row, then the 2 rows above that are also starred, which I am clueless about.
Could anybody please explain what is happening? And, is this common? I have not logged in using any other device and I always use browser only.

Gmail does a lot of stuff1 in the background. Depending on cookies, rotating IP addresses, etc., it's not uncommon to see multiple connections from the same "session".
I have a boat load of open sessions when I look at the same tool.
What you're seeing is normal, and not something to worry about. I would only be worried if it showed your account as being "open in another location". Good on you for looking, though. Most people don't.
