Can you explain what you mean by PW? Password?
The thought is to cahnge the WiFi password and see if it still connects? If not I would need to update the password for all the connected devices to the new router password, correct?
Under Advanced/Admin Attached Devices I selected "Block" on that device. It still shows activity. Is changing the password the only way to completely remove the device from accessing the router?
Yes Password.
