I just wanted to be sure because it is very standard, could you provide a screenshot of the Advanced WiFi settings please?

I am assuming that this is what you are asking for?

Sorry, we can't see that screenshot as it's not been moderated yet. Could you try attaching it instead, rather than pasting it in?

Sorry, it showed me on my screen that it was there. Didn't know it was not showing up but here it is again. Hope this helps..

When I ran mine I used WPA and AES only. Not in mixed mode. Also had OFDMA and Smart Connect enabled along with 40Mhz only channelwidth/co-exsistence. Beamforming and MIMO Enabled as well. Zero issues seen with my devices.

FURRYe38 I have always used WPA and AES only. I just recently the other day whenever I had to redo everything and start over again changed it to the mixed mode to see if that would help remedy the situation and it didn't help so I just left it as is for now. I also previously had all the same settings in place that you mentioned as well with the exception of the Smart Connect and I still had the same issue. I never used Smart connect because I have smart devices that require the 2.4ghz channel only and I didn't want to have dropped connections in my devices which I have read about some users having these issues with that setting. Therefore I opted to use both channels separately for most everything Smart device related on the the 2.4ghz channel and other things like Laptops, Tablets, Phones, Smart TV that don't require it on the 5ghz channel.

I would try with SC enabled. I've not seen any issues with my 2.4Ghz only devices with SC enabled...
Might try with AX mode disabled maybe.
