Allowlist ist not working properly. Access of all connected devices needed

Technical Support for Routers

Hi everyone,

I'm having an issue with my GL router. Currently, I can only connect my devices using their MAC addresses, but even that doesn't always work, only 3 MAC adresses are working, even after adding the MAC addresses to the allow list.

Now, I would like to allow all devices to connect to the router without having to enter each MAC address manually.

  1. How can I do this?
  2. Alternatively, does anyone know why the MAC addresses aren't being accepted?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best regards,
Dylan

About what "Allowlist" do we talk here?

Mostly you can unblock all devices by following this manual How to block client devices - GL.iNet Router Docs 4 but in reverse.

Thank you for this hint. I saw this feature already. What helped finally to switch of "static WLAN address" on the iphones. Then the router recognized the MAC address of the deives correctly.

Thank you for your help.
Best,
Dylan
