I'm owndering if there is a way to disable/enable or pause  a connection for a device in AP mode if we observe an issue?  Is this possible?

what do you mean "observe an issue"?  you don't get to use any of the AV/IPS etc aspects in AP mode.  You also don't get to control anything either.

I meant seeing a machine is using too much bandwidth and then pausing its connection if possible.

The Deco does not support advanced features, like antivirus/QoS/parental control and so on, you can click here to get more differences between AP mode and router mode.

You can do a sort of pause in AP Mode by temporarily blacklisting the device and when you want to un-pause you remove them from the blacklist
