Android/iOS App won't looses connection to RBR850 (RBK853) starting with Firmware 3.2.15.25

Hi, is anyone else seeing this problem?   Starting with RBR/RBS 850 firmware upgrade to 3.2.15.25 both Android and iOS apps (adroid latest version 2.5.4.1036) loose connection to my RBR850.    After I reboot the system it will connect, but after about 6-12 hours looses its ability to connect and won't reconnect until after reboot.   Happens every time.    As a test, I loaded the previous firmware (3.2.11.2) and the problem went away.  My RBR850 is in AP mode (not router mode).  I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Android and iOS Orbi apps with same behavior.

 

The web gui works perfectly the entire time.  The connected devices work perfectly as well.

 

Any suggestions?

Posted it there - however, this is definately caused by the firmware update to the AP.   Previous firmwares didn't display this issue (even downgraded FW and issue resolved, then returned with most recent FW).
