The software have accepted the entry and stored them into its ALLOWED LIST; however, when these devices trying to connect, the system would block them, and no matter how many times I have selected "Allow" these devices to connect, the system keeps on blocking them.

Access Control does not work properly in this software (2.2.1.210). I'd disable Access Control to avoid issues like those you're seeing.
There is a beta software that's being tested now by the community members, and initial feedback shows that Access Control seems to work better in that software. So hang on, a solution -hopefully- is coming soon! :)
