tg1682g Gateway "Auto-Learned Wi-Fi Devices"

On the tg1682g web page   Gateway > Connection > Wi-Fi, what are "Auto-Learned Wi-Fi Devices"?  It looks like these are devices that logged onto my WiFi without any setup even though I've got the MAC Filter mode set to Allow.

Good afternoon @user_67938a, and thank you for reaching out on our Community Forums with your WiFi concerns, do you have your settings set to allow devices to connect to your network without a password?

Not that I'm aware of.  Both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands are set to WPA2-PSK (AES)

Thank you so much for confirming that @user_67938a, have you tried resetting your password? May I also ask if you are able to pause or remove the device from your network?

By "password" do you mean the WPA2 Pre Shared Key? 

What do you mean by "pause or remove the device from your network"?  Disable the radios or disconnect the incoming data cable?

I apologize for any confusion or misunderstanding @user_67938a. I was referring to the password required to join your WiFi Network?

 

Are you able to pause or remove the devices that logged onto your WiFi? You can pause and remove devices from your network with our XFINITY app by following the instructions here https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/personalize-customize-hnetwork-xfi.
