Ever since I have the XR500, I'm encountering Wifi connection troubles, that I never had with my previous router. We have several Apple devices (mainly Iphones and Ipads), that all show...

Gents,
Unfortunately the switch to a free 5 GHz frequency didn't solve the Wifi connection troubles. I'm using WPA2-PSK(AES), Implicit beamforming and MU-MIMO are enabled. Wifi signal strength measured with my Mac book is excelent, but still not able to reliably obtain an internet connection.
Any suggestion what I could try further?

I sometimes experience this issue on my Apple devices, it has happened when I've been connected to my ISP hub as well so I believe the issues like with the devices. This guide has lots of suggestions that I suggest you try, a few can be applied to phones as well, let us know if it resolves the issue! https://www.macworld.co.uk/how-to/mac/fix-wifi-problems-mac-3605043/
