WAX220 firmware 1.0.3.5 apple instability
When I first bought my wax220 I had trouble with iPhones and iPads staying connected to 2.4g WiFi. Netgear produced firmware 1.0.3.4 and that solved the issue thankfully. I had no issues since.
Yesterday I tried upgrading to firmware 1.0.3.5 and again my iPad had issues connecting. I could see in setting that the WiFi was constantly connecting disconnecting and reconnecting
I downgraded the firmware and the issue was resolved.
other devices such as Amazon fire tv seemed to connect ok but I didn’t stay on the new firmware for that long to really test
ive seen other people complaining that 1.0.3.5 exhibits stability issues with apple devices
any advice about this? Why hasn’t a new firmware been created?
thanks

.... community Forum broken (no in-line images), tagging user still at least cumbersome, WBE7xx and WAX6xx firmware announced but revoked multiple times these weeks, ... A long way to Enterprise class solutions at it appears.
