Model: Deco X68  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.0.4

I am located in Taiwan, and I just bought TP-Link Deco 68, after I installed it yesterday, I found an unknown company name shown as my family member. The company name is SHENXHEN CHUANGWEI-RGB and Mac address: 60-42-7F-76-CC-CD, I blocked it today. Does anyone have similar experience? And know who the company is and how he can enter my Mesh?

You probably realized by now that one of your TVs lost access to the Internet after you blocked that MAC address.

 

"Shenzhen Chuangwei-RGB Electronics Co., Ltd. offers research and development, manufacture and sales of televisions. They have also won awards for their remote controls"

 

It is also common to have network card report not the name of computer, but the name of card manufacturer. For example, if you have Acer PC with third party network card, you may see it in Deco app not as ACER but as a name of a company which produced network card.

 

If you need to guess what device MAC address belongs too, Google for "MAC Address Lookup" to find web sites which will get info on that MAC address.
