WAX214 unstable : reboot when connecting devices
I can't a stable operation with Access Point WAX214. It's connected to a GC108P switch and perfectly powered. I create a new SSID (WPA2/WPA3) and reached to connected a Macbook. It work...
I too have run into this stability issue with WPA2/WPA3 hybrid mode. My workaround was to create an SSID for WPA2 and another SSID for WPA3. This works well and has been stable so far, but it would be good to have the hybrid mode as a viable option. I agree that setting the Group Key Update Interval to 0 is not a good option. Has anyone heard if/when there will be a firmware update to fix this stability issue with WPA2/WPA3 hybrid mode?
Please use the latest FW.
Important Bug Fixes:
- Fixes the issue where the AP sometimes reboots with certain connected WiFi clients.
- Fixes the schedule reboot issue.
- Fixes inability to read the connected client list via SNMP.

Thanks, I've dusted off my WAX214 and am willing to try it again. Let's see if this one will finally be stable when powered via POE (Netgear MX510TXPP)!
