This is the one that said the file size is too large. I've been using this feature to upload every variant of this beta that support has sent until now, several versions.
This is the only one with a file size so large it refused.

I've had a couple of device disconnects, not just phone but also laptop.
At least one of them I checked with the logs and it occured when roaming from one AP to another, both EAP 783's on 1.1.1. Both phone and laptop disconnected at the same time (the log showed them both switching AP's roaming at the same time)

@Vincent-TP, I'm experiencing crashes on MLO while using an iPhone 16 Pro (which has since been disabled), and drop outs on non-MLO ever since upgrading from an EAP660 HD to this EAP783. I'd like to try this pre-release firmware to see if things have improved.
However, I may be on hardware version 1.6 -- while the label on the device says "US/1.6" next to the model number, the dashboard on the device itself says "hardware version: 1.0". Will there be a pre-release firmware compatible with hardware v1.6?
Thanks.

Hi @DarthRay
EAP783 V1.6 use the same firmware version as EAP783 V1.0. You can upload this pre-release version for your device. Thanks.

Thank you, @Vincent-TP. I installed the pre-release version and will test it out over the next day or so. In the meantime, a couple of things I noticed:
1. Don't see the immediate crash when connecting from an iPhone 16 Pro to an MLO-enabled SSID. Will continue to monitor
2. Connection via SSH now drops onto an EAP app with a "EAP>" prompt instead of a shell. I was planning to get information about connected stations via SSH. Will there be a way to get to the shell once this firmware is released?
3. Once in the EAP app, there's no way to exit from it. Neither "quit" not "exit" disconnects from it, and there isn't a "logout" command either.\
4. The main status page still says my hardware version is 1.0 after the upgrade.
Thanks!
