WAX620 - clients dropping and rejoining constantly - can't connect with iOS
Hello Hope to get some help, as I'm at the end of my tether. My WAX620 hasn't been working properly for over a month and seems to be getting worse. It's got to the point now where I genuinely fee...
Thanks. Since my message I've since went through a ridiculously user unfriendly process to reset and remove again, this time getting it to local mode and removing it from Insight.
As for your note, I had 4 options to choose from and this was the closest. When I click "Show all", it gave me a tree full of empty options. I am really stressed with Netgear. Every time you go to get help, there's another issue blocking you from getting the help.
EDIT: When I posted this, I got "Your post has been changed because invalid HTML was found in the message body. The invalid HTML has been removed. Please review the message and submit the message when you are satisfied." I mean, unbelievable!
Anyway, it now looks like the SSID I want to use and have used forever now can't be used, but any other SSID, it works fine. This is ridiculous - even after resetting both the AP and the client device. It just hangs and hangs, so I've downloaded the logs and seeing stuff like
amazon-xxxxx (xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx) wireless client could not obtain IP address
So, why can it obtain IP address when I use a different cosmetic SSID.
I'll post on the forum as you suggest, but what a load of rubbish this AP is.
I had similar issues with the WAX630E APs and finally had to take them offline. Very similar issues (devices disconnecting, deauthing, issues w/ 2.4/5ghz, etc). It wasn't worth the constant issues, so I dusted off some old equipment and I'm no longer dealing with the nonsense.
I am a glutton for punishment but I thought the web literature was fancy and went ahead and bought a ton of WAX630 and it basically has been torture for me for 5 days straight. There is this gap in the product universe from soho and 100% mesh systems that don't work well in large spaces, vs. the "enterprise grade" stuff. I guess this is a bad segment in the middle.
