SXR80 Enable Fast Roaming Setting Bugged 4.0.0.118
Was really happy to see that the "Enable Fast Roaming" option was re-added to the Advanced Wireless Settings. However, the setting appears bugged (at least on my system) and reverts to disabled any ...
Please note that this bug has persisted through 4.2.0.122
Not just Fast Roaming, the option to Enable/ Disable Broadcast Name for Wireless 2 (at least) also has the same bug. I use Wireless 2 set at WPA2 for my printer, and having set the Wi-Fi in the printer, I do not want to keep broadcasting the SSID. I go to Advanced > Setup > Wireless Setup > Wireless 2 and UNCHECK the option titled Enable SSID Broadcast.
The option stays unchecked so long as the router does not reboot. You reboot it, the SSID is broadcast.
