Known network is blocklisted
Someone I'm trying to assist with their Mac has trouble connecting to their new Wi-Fi modem at home.
I went through the logs, and there are several entries like this one:

I Googled 'Known network is blocklisted' and got no hits, so I hope someone here can shed some light on this.
