-Disabled Daisy-Chain mode
-Disabled 20/40Mhz Coexistence
-Disabled Fast Roaming

Voice quality is very clear too, I noticed an improvement after making the above changes. Thanks for you help.

Glad its working better. Be sure to make a backup configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
Enjoy. :smileywink:
