Firmware V1.8.0.6 iOS disconnections anyone?
Have updated and so far haven't had any iOS disconnections. Am hesitant to start celebrating until I have been using this update for longer, however my iPad Pro which repeatedly disconnected on older...
Disconnecting again on iOS devices. Also now having random satellite drops from the main router then seems to be reconnecting back after a minute. Very frustrating this satellite drop has only just started didn't happen immediately after upgrading to v1.8.0.6.
i know this product has many potential benefits and some bugs are always to be expected but I really can't understand why it's taking Netgear so long to sort these issues out properly.
Running a debug version v1.8.0.12 for a week or two now...( v .6 was released a week+ after getting the debug version ) after submitting 2 sets of logs a number af days ago , I turned off Beamforming and MI-MIMO
Can say the ipad g3 dropping is almost completely gone ... use to be a couple times in 15 mins or more, now maybe 1x per hour and it is less in duration so streaming just stutters a bit , not dropping for 15 sec
Also have notice since turning off above settings, that the android S7 ( battery ) with wifi on is dropping only 3% per night in standby where it was dropping up to 40%
IMO, it looks like a win and maybe the issue is comming to an end
No issues at all with the new firmware in AP mode and using the FIos router. MU-MIMO is on, all others at default
