Access control is available in the setting you could associate the device and set it to be blocked all the time, I would also turn off your ssid broadcast and change it after then re-attach all devices

My router BThome hub 4 has this happening all the time, every couple of
minutes.

I am guessing someone local has setup their Lexmark printer (I presume it's
a lexmak printer by the mac) using my router but does not know my wpa key.



The consent attempts to connect means that my connection lags, a lot and
often.



Can I block a mac address from my home hub? I have looked over the setting
but can not find anything suitable.



Kindest regards



Simon
