Wax220 and myQ connectivity issues
Can't connect chamberlain myQ garage door opener via wax220 ap via 2.4 band. All other devices I have are working via the 2.4 band. If I substitute a wireless nighthawk router, it connects fine. I have opened a case with Netgear.

Have you tried setting the security to wpa2?
Make sure to remove any special characters/spaces from the ssid/password too

Yes - no effect. The configuration works on the nighthawk wireless router. I used exactly the same SSID's on the Router (not simultaneous) as the WAX220. I even put both the RAX30 as a router and used the WAX220 as AP and configured the myQ to communicate via the wireless on the router, dropped the wireless SSID on the router and enabled the WAX220 SSID and the myQ refuses to connect. Is it possible to adjust RTS/CTS on the WAX220 like on the router? I saw elsewhere that this was resolved on an Orbi by adjusting that parameter. I have a dash and a period in the SSID (DD-WRT2.4) but it connects fine via the router.

Do you have the wax220 set to use 20hz wide channels? maybe thats an issue.
Have you tried disabling AX on the WAX?
I don't have a wax so not sure of what settings you have available.
