| Jun 4 at 10:07 | comment | added | Nidheesh | @Spiff Could it be that already connected device's network connection are going to sleep or something. I am asking as when I connect two devices to the network the new two devices are able to talk to each other instantly but pinging the server which is already in the network doesn't work. | |
| Jun 4 at 8:05 | comment | added | Nidheesh | @Spiff My router only has 2.4GHz capability, the rest of the options are B,G,N settings. I have now changed the channel width to 20MHz only and set channel to 11. The 802.11w was in capable by default and as it was not working I changed it to required. Now I have set it to capable and for the sha256 option that now appeared I set it to disabled. The issue still persists. | |
| Jun 4 at 6:31 | comment | added | Nidheesh | @Ramhound No, my router only has 2.4GHz capability, the rest of the options are B,G,N settings. Also there is no Bridge mode in the mode settings, AP is the only available option. Bridge mode is available only in the Internet tab of the network settings tab. The available options there are Router and Bridge | |

| Jun 4 at 3:01 | comment | added | Spiff | How does that "band" pop-up work on your device? Is it telling you that you only have 2.4GHz enabled instead of having both 2.4GHz and 5GHz enabled simultaneously? For 2.4GHz settings, you should set it for 20MHz-wide channel only (no auto 20/40 or 40-only), and set it manually for the cleanest channel out of 1, 6, or 11 (use a network scanner like inSSIDer to find the cleanest channel). If I were you I'd also try switching 802.11w mode to optional, not required. Unless you know all your clients support 802.11w, it's probably best no to require it. But definitely make sure 5GHz is enabled! | |

| Jun 4 at 1:41 | comment | added | Ramhound | I suspect your router needs to be set to Bridge mode instead of Access Point mode but that definitely will disable WiFi on that device, which suggests netlink gpon router should be in Bridge mode allowing the device in the screenshots to be set to AP mode | |
| Jun 4 at 1:34 | comment | added | Ramhound | Have you intentionally disabled your 5.0 GHz capability? | |
