Random wifi connections, what to do after changing password.

It is 11pm and a iphone 14 max just connected to my wifi. I got a notification on my xfinity app. I paused their access and changed the password to one more difficult. Shortly after I saw a ipad connect, then the iphone try to reconnect, possibly before the password reset went though. Paused both. Now I see two connections I do not recognize and wonder if anyone can shed light on them.

What is maxlinea-0006? I couldnt understand exactly from the website, but it said something along the lines of insuring connectivity immediately and that it is a transceiver. I’m not savvy to this extent so it may just be part of some infrastructure for better internet? The second connection is “generic brand ISP TV box”. I cannot think what this would be beyond the router, unless it is again part of some infrastructure. I do not have a TV and I can identify the four connections of mine on my router, but not these two.

What would you do to insure no one can connect?
