EX6150: fimrware V1.0.0.16_1.0.58 bugged!!!

Hello,

 

Today, I've installed an EX6150 as wifi extender with factory firmware V1.0.0.14_1.0.54

All devices (Wks, printer, smarphone...) run without any problem.

(Note my printer uses Wifi 2.4G, WPA2-PSK/AES, Channel 5 and 9)

 

I've uploaded and installed last firmware version V1.0.0.16_1.0.58

and my Brother Printer 9970CDW loose the connection after 1 minute.

(Same parameters Wifi 2.4G, WPA2-PSK/AES, Channel 5 and 9)

 

So, I've re-installed firmware V1.0.0.14_1.0.54 and my printer connect and run correctly.

 

It's a pity but the firmware V1.0.0.16_1.0.58 is bugged...

 

BR

    Hi jpdeglet69,

     

    Thank you for the details and letting us know :)

    I'll forward this on

  • Is EX6150: fimrware V1.0.0.16_1.0.58 going to get fixed?  

     

    I've just bought a EX6150... updated it to V1.0.0.16 and it's tempremental to  say the least.  

     

    I'm back on 1.0.0.14 now and it works a treat.

     

    Very disapointed to see the dates on these posts and no solution posted from support.  I guess that's what the device was on sale?
