Many of my devices do not stay connected?

I spent the day installing the ER605 to replace the Verizon FIOS router.
Most devices are connecting as needed and all computers are getting Internet.
I have two servers in my basement that many of my IOT devices (cameras, sensors, switches, etc) need connection. But connection is spotty. Sone will work for a few minutes or more, then drop connection. Other devices just won't connect to my MQTT server. But some do.
I see this on the dashboard of my Software Controller which I suspect is the root of my issue:
I can't find which devices triggered a failure. I am using WPA-Personal and the same password as I did on the Verizon router. And, as I said, many devices work. Intermittently.
In "Devices" and "Clients", everything says "Connected" - even the devices that are presenting this problem say "Connected.
Below is my device map. The servers that clients can't maintain a connection are in the "Client Group", all on Ethernet and all with fixed IP addresses. The devices having a problem staying connected, if they connect at all, are on WiFi and on the Office or Basement EAP.
Have I missed something in my configuration?
Hi @SteveMann,
What is the firmware version of your controller? Did you set Lock to AP feature?
What is the model number and the firmware version of your EAPs？
The PMF feature was supported since Omada Controller v5.7, which requires to upgrade the EAP device firmware to take effect. So changing PMF from "Mandatory" to "Capable" for testing, if your IoT still has connection issue with the "Capable" option, you may disable PMF for the IoT network.
