Delete old devices from google mesh router

Bruins

have a long list of devices previously connected devices on my Google Nest Wifi router-app. I don't see any option to delete these devices? Do I miss something?

 

These devices are in a grey box and are marked as "inactive". Many devices are just "unknown" so I wanna get rid of them.   Do not tell me to wait 30 days either.   That clearly doesn't work!

Hi Bruins,

 

Thanks for posting. I'm sorry for the inconvenience that you have trying to delete the old devices from your Google mesh. Let me explain what those grayed-out devices in your list mean. Active connections on your network appear in the list, and once a device disconnects, it gets grayed out to indicate its inactive status. While you can't manually edit the list, these inactive devices will automatically disappear after about 30 days if they don't reconnect, keeping your list up-to-date.

 

We understand this might be inconvenient, and we appreciate your feedback. We're constantly working on improvements, and your input helps us shape future features.

 

Please let me know if you have more questions. 

 

Regards,

Jenny

Thats the thing.   Even after 180 days they do not disappear.   Check your code because its not working for anyone!
