Implicit beam forming is disabled
2.4 is on channel 6
I returned my pw to original - so I didn't have to possibly fix other things (Like my printer which I got going again) and I will check it and pray it stays connected.
Let me know if any of this helps you.

So, this morning after contemplating and procrastinating and poking around --- I noticed a checkbox that was checked (at the bottom of the advanced wireless settings page) enable implicit BEAMFORMING. I unchecked rebooted. Tried unplug/replug therm. and it worked!!!
Now I need to decide do I keep the other changes I made? re: pw without special characters and changed channel from auto to 6.
I also realize that I need to wait and make sure that it STAYS connected, but the actual process went smooth like butter. I will keep my fingers crossed.
Thanks.

Sounds like a compatiblity problem with this one device and the router. Possible age of the device. Something to consider a updated or newer generation version of this devcie if thats something available.
Idk, I had to rework my wiifii printer suddenly also.
Ensure printers FW is updated as well. Check with the printers Mfr for additional help and information regarding there product.
