No seamless connection btwn WAX630E and router

[OneGigMan]

I installed a Netgear Wireless Access Point (WAX630E) and my phone only connects to it if I turn my wifi off, go next to the WAP, and turn my wifi back on. And vice versa, if I am connected to my WAP and I go near my router, I'll lose service and it won't connect unless I turn my wifi off and then back on again.

I have "Fast Roaming 802.11r" on and I am in "No mesh mode"

Should I turn mesh mode on? Any tips?

My router is a Comcast XB8....please don't tell me I need only Netgear devices to seamlessly connect to one another....

Not 100% because I don't have any of the business class access points but my understanding for the "mesh" feature to work was it needed to be insight managed.

You can set them with the same ssid but they won't roam as efficiently as they aren't part of the same mesh.
