As far as I remember - on the AiMesh page, the same way you bind the client. If you don't see the device on the list - bring it closer to the node it is banded to, make the change when it shows up.

In the WebUI, under general, select AI Mesh. If you then click on the node the device is attached to, you'll see its detail in the right-hand column. Click on the white "link" icon next to the device and you'll be able to unbind it!
*Binding a device to a node won't exclude it from connecting to other nodes if the selected node is not available or has very poor signal quality.

But the problem is, if the device is further away, and impossible to connect to the node, it's not visible in the webui...

Then bring the device closer or use Asus App. It shows a list of inactive clients. If your routers are running Asuswrt-Merlin - careful with Asus App and Asuswrt-Merlin specific features. The compatibility is limited. Usable as workaround for your issue.

Aha, I see it indeed with the Asus app!!
Is there no such setting with the webgui?

As I remember it was only available in Asus App. The router has a list of inactive clients, but AiMesh page has some inconsistencies.

In the WebUI, you may see devices connected to the wrong node, and they'll be highlighted as such. If they are not connected to anything, they'll appear at the bottom of their nodes client list, and although they are greyed out you can still click on the link symbol to disconnect them!
The App also lists devices that are offline in their own section, and it's still possible to tap on the "Bind to AP", in this case to remove the binding (you cant change or add a binding while they are off line).
