How to remove registered clients from clients list
How do I remove old registered clients from the router (an internal table with device names/MAC addresses)? When creating a parental control, I get an enormous list of devices that aren't in the network any longer, on many pages. I want to rescan the network and eliminate those entries. How do I do that without a factory reset?
I don't mean removing devices from a parental control, I mean removing the decice registrations from the router internal tables so they don't appear as an option when creating a parental control.

It's been a while and still not fixed.
Resenting the router to its defaults and reconfiguring is not a solution.
Can not do that every few weeks. Removing old devices should be in your software as an option.

What about using the Guest network feature?
Has anyone tested if Guest network devices will be a part of that same list?

Developers, please add this options.
Do you guys know if there is a way to modify the software ourselves? I'm kind to do it

@Whammamoosha Not the ideal solution, but can you not just block them? Another option if they are close in range to a set of IPs, would be to change the starting IP range of your network to just past the last one. So if they all use IPs before x.x.x.50, for example, move your starting range to x.x.x.51. Then reboot your router forcing all the existing devices to be forced to request a new lease.
I'm not sure if that would work, but it might be worth a shot.

@ember Not a chance, sorry. The database is a list of MACs, not IPs. And what if you sell your own phone, receive a visitor, etc? The goddamn MAC gets stranded in the database until you reset the router and configure it from scratch.
TP-Link is dead, long live Ubiquiti.

@Whammamoosha I have the same issue, but it appears that this hasn't been addressed in 18+ months.
