XWNB5201 installed and working, except..
I picked up the Powerline 500 + Wifi and installed it. Works great. TV connects and streams, no issue. The problem I have is with my iPhone/iPad.
Connected with no issue. But as soon as I try to use anything on the phone via wifi (say, check email) it takes 2-4 minutes for the internet connection to work.
If I continue to use the phone at that point (check social media etc) it will continue to work flawlessly. later in the day, rinse and repeat with the same results.
Has anyone run into this?
Follow up! Fixed it!
Changed the wifi channel from Auto to 6. Apparently Auto has issues with connectivity. Once I did that, all my devices work great now!
