WAX220 WIFI Disconnects on Apple devices
Please help, this has been doing my nut in. WAX220 WIFI AP for some reason keeps disconnecting Apple Iphones for a minute frequently and causes calls on facetime to freeze and become unsuitable t...
After these adjustments are connections still solid? I am also struggling with this issue where IOS devices are constantly disconnecting from wifi and switching to cellular. For me I dont know if its this AP or IOS 17 which is riddled with WIFI issues but seeing what people are posting, the two aren't playing nice.
Nothing absolutely helped in the end when it comes to WAX220 configuration.
The device is malfunctioning. It is the WAP and not your iPhone clients.
I've had WAX220 removed from service and replaced with another device since the last post.
All of the issues are gone. My devices which had most issues with disconnecting are now connected without any interrupts. Everything flows and I am hitting ~860Mbps - 1.1Gbps over WiFi for both 2.4 and 5 GHz bands , due to only 1 drywall barrier between office and WAP in the garage with distance of <10m between client devices and WAP.
Thank you for the reply. Its getting rather annoying to be using it like this in hopes of a F/W update to address it. I am too now looking for a replacement.
