Wax 220 Wi-Fi stability issues
I don't think it's the router bc I put the AC-lite AP back out and disconnected the wax220 and everything works beautifully.
Location: a small 2-story home with a single ceiling access point in the center of the 2nd story. Pretty sure no point in the home is more than 35' from the AP.
Backstory: My ubiquity AC-lite was fine, but I wanted to upgrade to ax/6 in anticipation of fiber coming to my neighborhood. Got a switch and a router with 2.5G ports on them, and a Netgear WAX220.

Hi @colinscustompcs,
Is the locally managed or on-boarded in Insight? Also, is it up to date?
Looking forward to your response.
Kind regards,

@colinscustompcs #metoo +1
All of the issues you described, me and my partner had on our Android Pixel 6 phones.
But what hits me hardest is the random drops on Apple devices which were provided for work.
So after paying $200 for this device, and RMA, I am at the day 1 with Netgear support and they won't pick up the phone to help with the case.
I have made longer post describing my issues here: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Business-Wireless/WAX220-WIFI-Disconnects-on-Apple-devices/m-p/2360...

No Insight support on the WAX220. 1.0.3.3 was released around 2023 December 21st, no word of a bigger upadate or fix in the release notes.
What do you expect from calling the first level support, after having RMA-swapped the original unit, and still suffering @zekou ?
My only WAX220 I'm operatting here on a limited deployment szenario is amazingly solid and fast.
