Besides disabling AX mode for 2.4Ghz, try setting your CTS/RTS Threshold to 2347 to maximize compatibility with older wireless devices:
- Go to the web admin portal at http://orbilogin.com/
- Click to the Advanced tab, Advanced left menu, Wireless Settings
- Set CTS/RTS Threshold to 2347 for both 2.4hz and 5Ghz networks
- Press Apply

I have to go to 192.168.86.1 as I have to adjust my router locally.

Done

Done - the value that was there was "64"
- Press Apply
Done - it does not appear to have changed anything - some WEMO switches came back on automatically - others did not - and about half still are not on line after an hour. I unplugged them and plugged them back in to reset them but still the same issue.
The LIFX bulbs are still dropping off the network and sometimes coming back on. I really do not want to have to go back to the GOOGLE mesh network if I don't have to, but I cannot have these switches off line and not able to get on line.
