I work as a PC technician. When I bring clients machines to the workshop I usually put them on my wifi and prioritise them so that their Windows updates will download faster etc.

Once it's all done, the machine goes back to my client and will probably never be on my network again. Is there a way to remove it from Deco's list of known devices?

I'm not 100% sure about this, but try blacklisting the device first, and then removing it from the blacklist. I think that once it is removed from the blacklist, it won't show up again until it reconnects to the network. Let us know how it goes, as this is definitely a good question!

Unfortunately it didn't work. I'll try rebooting the Boss Deco and see if the ones I toggle go away after that.

Hmm, nope...I wonder how to do it then, and even if it really needs to be cleaned up...the thing is there's already about 20 machines in the list which will never come here again...

I guess the only way to delete these devices is to add new devices to the list.

So it'll throw away devices if they're not seen for a long time?

Also I see devices on my DECO that never will connect again (e.g my old iPhone that is gone now).
So I would would be very happy with a new menu option to delete them.

Agree. Should be able to delete the old devices that never connect again.

Very odd that there's no way to do this.
