Model: Archer C64  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

I'm confused! Got new WiFi router for home, have renamed various clients to identify the person/device connected - all fine. I keep blocking a client (iPhone) to stop someone in house using WiFi (long story), Mysteriously a new device with a different ip address appears. This keeps happening, so that I now have 6 clients blocked but the person still seems to be able to use the internet. 

Anyone able to enlighten me, please?! 

 

Thanks

That could be due to the random (private) MAC feature of mobiles.

If that's the case, check this article to see how you can mitigate this behavior.
