CAX30 (Costco) will randomly stop passing traffic for some devices but not all
Random wifi devices lose connectivity intermittently. I know the signal is good because the TV never stops! Noticeable drops: Smart plugs, Blink hub, Roku, iPhone12 Seem ok: LG tv, Firesticks, iP...
Thanks for the reply!
Firmware is 1.4.10.8 and all my drivers are up to date. Only a couple neighbor's with wifi not too close. From my most distant device and closest to neighbors, I ran a channel scanner and attached the output but could not attach the output. I'm alone on channel 1 but manually changed it to 1 from Auto. The 5ghz is set at 153 and the next closest ssid is a -30 bd difference from me. Hope that makes sense!
In wireless settings I have Beamforming and MIMO checked, Airtime Fairness is disabled though. (Change?)
I just read the another thread you're in with iRyan about reserved IPs being an issue - and I do that. DHCP is 192.168.1.200-250 with a couple things reserved as .100-.102. Sounds like i need to stop reserving and manually configuring. (at work we call it SDHCP - static dynamic... grumble. anyways!)
90% of the time I'm sitting beside the router when my single connection drops. If I do default, are there any "features" I should leave alone?
Is there any trick getting by the level 1 ISP support that asks you to reboot when you just need to check correct provisioning/line quality? I get it - but I think everybody on this site is beyond that 🙂
I hope this attachment is legible. Thank you guruFURRYe38 !
1. Your power levels are way too low:

2. You have a ton of correct and un-correctables that should be zero. ISP needs to help you check the signal on the line and ensure all coax fittings are right and snug fitting. Remove any coax line splitters.
IP address reservations should be with in the Default DHCP IP address pool range. Static IP addresses are set ON devices and out side the Default DHCP IP address pool range
