Welcome to the community! :)
One of the known issues of the WAX610 Firmware v9.5.2.5 states below:
- MAC ACL does not work as expected when MAC Randomization is enabled for the wireless clients. Workaround: Disable MAC Randomization on the clients.
As reference, kindly read the release notes of the WAX610 Firmware v9.5.2.5 here.

That makes sense even before upgrade to firmware, MAC radomization is not set on any of my devices connecting to wifi. I'm still waiting for IPV6 passthrough so clients can properly use but in this case it seems if MAC ACL is checked it disables ability to connect for any device as if the MAC ACL is corrupt. Have reset device, reverted back to old firmware "of course it automatically upgrades back to new" after adding to cloud.
