EX7000 iOS connectivity issues

I've researched and read posts of other EX7000 and iOS users having the same issue. I have uploaded older firmware versions and still have limited connectivity with my iOS devices. I am able to connect to my extended network, but certain apps and safari do not work. Are there any remedies for this issue?

 

Thanks

    Have changed the EX7000 to the defaults and reconfigured from scratch? An extender is a pure Layer 2 connection, unlikely to interfere with iOS Apps and/or Safari browser.

    I have had the same issue ,on my EX7000.  I could not connect my Ipad to the 2.4 ghz channel ,nor could I connect my smart tv to the extender either,

    i solved the problem by changing the security settings to WPA-PSK Tkip Wpa2 Psk AES ,,

    i have a EX6200 that had the same trouble and this changed fixed that also,

    this problem arose after upgrading both units to latest level of firmware,,

    hope this helps
