WAX610Y and WAC540 Bridged Network
I have a WAC540 that is working great, and it's connected hardwired. There's a driveway gate controller that needs internet access, but no hardwired network available. So, I purchased a WAX610Y (since it's used outdoors), made the WAC540 the root, and WAX610Y the extender. I also used a PoE injector to power the WAX610Y. The WAX610Y also services outdoor clients. Both connect and formed a bridge across a long driveway. Although it's only 50 feet away, the wireless strength reported "good" (one below "excellent") at -54 dBm. I connected a laptop to the other end of the CAT5e that is connected to this WAX610Y, and I was getting very poor internet speed, something like 5-10 mbps up/down where it's normally 600+ mbps. I reset everything, did firmware upgrade, etc., but I am still having connectivity issues. It's also disconnecting and reconnecting every so often. Can you tell me if the WAX610Y supports extending the network across the driveway? This is how I have it: Gate Keypad <-CAT5e-> PoE Injector <-CAT5e+PoE-> WAX610Y <-wireless-> WAC540 WAC540 <-> router <-> internet Thanks for any advise for getting this to work properly.IOS Apple Devices Dropping
I have WAX625, WAX610, & 605. For a number of months now, my IOS devices continue to drop their WIFI and then takes 2-5min to reconnect. I originally had Load Balance and Remove Sticky Clients configured. I have put everything back. Firmware on the AP is 10.8.13.2 I am a technical guy and I feel I have tried all the other things that have been mentioned in posts that sort of sound like mine. I think this is only happening on my 5/6ghz SSID. I Have a SSID for 2.4 and one for 5/6. Any suggestions? Anyone else seeing this? Im so frustrated that I'm looking at a different vendor for the house. I am managing these in Insight.Wireless Bridge
I have a problem that the new fibre install can not get to the network so I am looking to have the fibre installed with the router and have a wireless bridge to link to the network switch. I use WAX610 for the WAPs (wifi6) so am looking for the same technology to connect this new fibre into the networkWAX630E Daily Disconnection Issues
