  • have you tried forgetting the network on those devices?

    or trying a factory reset and reinstall on the router? Whenever there's issues after a firmware upgrade, its one of the first things we recommend.

      Been there and done that. Only thing that works is rebooting the router.

        done which? 

        The factory reset or forgetting the network? 

        Have you tried downgrading the firmware a version?
