Using this extender with an AX6000 router.

 

Is there any way to prevent a given device (e.g. Win 11 laptop) from connecting to the extender without having to give the extender a different SSID?

Hello @MSStateDawg ,
Thanks for reaching out!

 

Yes, you can use the Access Control feature on your range extender to block specific devices from connecting to it.

For more detailed instructions, you can refer to this guide: How to set access control on my range extender

 

Best Regards.

  @Joseph-TP Uh...no. When you have the extender setup as part of the extended network, you're not allowed to setup a blacklist. One would have to remove the extender from the mesh, which I'm not willing to do.

Hello @MSStateDawg ,

If you have created a Mesh network, the RE715X's Access Control should follow the main router's settings.
