Hi all, I have been trying to delete a device/devices from my EE wifi but i cannot seem to do it. When i go on the smart hub page i am going to 'My Network' page and then the list of devices appear in a list. I have found the relevent device and clicked on 'Remove' and have pressed save. It still shows as connected and so i tried it with other devices on the list and when i click Remove it does nothing. Ive tried refreshing but that changes nothing.

You can't Remove devices currently connected. These are indicated by being in Green.

Only unconnected devices indicated by being Greyed-out can be Removed. No Save is required; just a yes/no confirmation.

Thanks thats great. A little bit annoying that you cant remove connected devices as i was wanting to use it for 'parental controls'

You can use Access Control as parental controls to some extent.

For some reason my EE Smart Router (White FTTP) is not allowing me to even delete the greyed out disconnected devices. I confirm to remove any of the disconnected devices, refresh and they still show. Router reset and factory reset too. 

Firmware version: v0.05.02.02081-EE

 

Firmware updated: 19-Mar-2023

Just found out that the issue is with Google Chrome, as working ok in Edge, but not chrome. Have cleared data etc and reinstalled Chrome, but still the same issue.

Thanks for coming back and letting us know @huggons

Having the same issue and this was the cause for me also. Chrome does not show the button to remove the devices but Edge does.

Also shows up with FireFox.
