WPA3 issues
I just repalced my RBK52 to RBK852 and so far everything works great except major WPA3 hiccup I thought WPA3 supposed to be a backward compatible but some devices cannot connect the network if I set...

WPA is not backwards compatible from what I understand. WPA3 is it's own new standard and any client device you have needs to be upgraded to also support WPA3. I know that Apples iOS 13 preview supports it. I believe newer Android OS supports it as well.
Hopefully NG will come out with a mixed WPA2 and WPA3 mode that would be supporting of both modes for those devices that don't get upgraded to WPA3.
