EX7300 drops connection
After setting up the extender and connecting to the 5G it keeps disconnecting/reconnecting also so does the 2G connection. My old extender never had any dropped connections and I checked the firmware...
It appears my router being flashed with dd-wrt is the issue.
Update:
So it seems when I have 2 or more devices connected to the same connection thats when the disconnects/reconnects happens. I noticed this at first I had my phone connected to the 5G late last night after shutting down my PC so the phone was the only device connected and it stayed connect. This morning I turn my PC on and connect to the 5G and the disconnect/reconnect occurs on both phone and PC. I tested with 2G and same thing happened on both devices. I had one connected to 2G and the other on 5G and both have stable connections. So it seems I was able to rule out that I can't have multiple devices connected on the same network and now the question is why is this happening with the extender?
