Hello Tallman
And welcome to the NETGEAR Community! 🙂
Can you check what firmware do you currently have on your router/access point? If your device firmware is updated. I suggest you open a ticket with our support team so engineering could investigate about your issue and they might include a fix on the next firmware release.
Have a lovely day,
Erwin
