@Joseph-TP Appreciate you replying. Yes it is about increasing the number of devices allowed under access control and address reservation. Both seem to be limited to 64 devices. I have over 100, mostly smart devices but also a good number of phones, laptops, PC's etc.I often get address conflicts and address reservation allows me to set more critical devices to higher addresses. I can do this sometimes on the device itself but for some devices I can only do this with address reservation. I know devices don't have to accept the address given, but I have more of a chance of reducing an address conflict using address reservation.

It's the access control restriction I really don't like. I want to whitelist my devices, hence blocking anything new from trying to connect. I want to be in control of this. I cannot whitelist all my devices which means I have to turn this feature off completely.

I raised this with TP-Link support a long time ago, so original case id's are long gone on my side. At the time they said they would look to change it. I then heard nothing and nothing has changed.

Regards
