Unused devices on wifi

Gayle

I have unused and unknown devices on my T3200M  

Can someone tell me how to remove them?

 

I have tried rebooting my router and changing password.

 

  Thank you

On mine they fall off after a few days. You could go to the Admin panel, Advanced and LAN settings to see what the LAN DHCP lease time is. Devices should disappear once they cannot renew a lease. Mine is set to 1 Day.

Unknown devices may those connected to your router which do not have a name assigned to them.

 

What do you mean by “unused” devices? The router retains the assigned IP address for some hours since it last connected.

 

Care to share a screenshot of the issue?

Sorry I probably didn't explain very well.  There are devices that belong to other people listed and

I would like to remove them. Its been weeks since they have used my wifi. 

 

On my home network.  They shows as inactive. Not hurting anything I just want to delete them

and there is no option to do so.

Mine also says 1 day. Late now but maybe in morning I will try another reboot. 

Thanks for help.

Just wanted to pop back and say this morning a reset worked. Maybe they had to be "inactive" long enough for that to finally clear everything. 

Thanks again for the support.
