So what do you use for DNS lookup? That is in a reserved private address range. Those are not routable on a public network, typically that address is used as a default gateway address.
192.168.0.0/16 IP addresses:
192.168.0.0 – 192.168.255.255
You must be able to route to a DNS server to access the internet. Do you use standard DNS addresses provided by your ISP or have you changed to a more secure DNS server like Cloudflare, OpenNIC or OpenDNS (208.67. 220.220 and 208.67. 222.222)?

That sounds like a great idea. (NOT)
It means they can't download or use a computer to search the logs which would require the read through the logs line by line. That would only take a couple of people about 10 years to do with a law enforcement official over their shoulder being paid by the auditing company. You better start donating to CyberNinjas now because they are going to need a lot of money.

Sure. And how do you make sure that everyone with a mobile device that can connect to your wifi has deleted all the old wifi passwords on all their devices? A device that automatically connects will automatically connect to any signal with the old SSID and password if it is available. It is extremely easy to set up a man in the middle attack if you know the SSID and password they are trying to automatically connect to.

AMERICAN HISTORY ITSELF IS A TESTAMENT TO THE STRENGTH AND RESILIENCE OF AFRICAN PEOPLE. WE, ALONG WITH THE COURGE AND SACRIFICES OF CONSCIOUS WHITE AMERICANS, LIKE VIOLA LIUZZO, EVERETT DIRKSEN, AND MANY OTHERS, HAVE FOUGHT AND DIED TOGETHER FOR OUR FREEDOM, AND FOR OUR SURVIVAL.
In America, rights are are not determined by what is just, fair, equitable, honest, nor by what Jesus would do. Rights are determined ONLY by what you can DEMAND.
LOL, keep your day job. A router is NOTHING like a modem. A modem connects your intranet to the internet. Your router assigns IP addresses on your network. It contains a ton of information. There is a 'bunch of memory' on a router, and it stores browsing histories, passwords, tons of information about devices that accessed it. Good grief.
Could it be done? Yes, but it would require some major security. Any computers used would not be able to be attached to any network. No one would be allowed to use any removable data device. No phones or cameras would be allowed. It must occur in a secure room. Nothing with data can leave the room. All computers used must be securely wiped after the audit is done. A forensic audit doesn't occur in a few hours. It will take days or weeks.
Cyberninjas is going to need a lot of money to follow the security you say would be needed. You better start donating.
