Under the Home Network tab there is a list of various devices, some currently connected and some not. Is it safe to delete this list and let the router re-find the current connected devices?




 I'm supposed to respect my elders, but it's getting harder and harder for me to find one now.

Yes you can delete devices in that list, you can connect again without an issue. Just tested by deleting my phone from that list

I also find it useful to edit the entries with meaningful names (note no spaces) when you get shown only a mac address.

Good point, thanks. Its very confusing trying to determine what all the entries are, seem to be lots of duplicates.

the router doesn't find them, the devices find the router :)
