Wireless allowlist does not seem to be working

Installing and Using OpenWrt Network and Wireless Configuration

So, I figured out how to do the wirless config changes via the command line in here: Wireless whitelist from the command line

I wasn't seeing the changes in the web UI, so I figured out I needed uci commit after my commands.

I now see the MAC addresses configured for "allow," and the MAC addresses that are on the allow list, but I'm still able to get to the Internet on a device that is not on the allow list.

Any tips on what I should look at to debug this? Is there a command I need to run to force disassociation to all currently connected clients, so they have to reconnect, and those on the allow list won't be allowed back on?

Youll need to restart wifi to apply new parameters, effectively disconnecting all down the line.
OpenNDS and EAP come to mind.

wifi reload does the trick!
