Wifi delay and "failed to connect because WPA authentication - times out/failed"

Hi all.
After a day of attempts I have to raise the white flag and give the web a try.
Some device connected to EAP110 network continuously disconnect and reconnect... this does not happens with Asus Router.
My problem is: I have two AP.
- One A) is the main Asus router (and AP of course)
- the other B) is an TPlink EAP-110 cabled in the network to A) with a static ip address.
A) & B) have different SSID.
SSID aren't hidden.
There aren't filter (mac or something else).
Signal strenght to B) is about -69dBm. When connected to A) about -73dBm.
My Devices does not have any throuble connecting with A) but with B) I see a lot of malfunctions.
Log of B) inform me that device that connect to B) sometimes (about twice for minute) "failed to connect because WPA authentication times out/failed".
What I see is a sort of 'burst' data transmission from devices connected to B). And I do not understand wich is the cause.
I try to play with channels and other router parameters.
Supposing that A) and B) may interfere each other, I change SSID for B) but the problem is still there.
I really appreciate any suggestion.
Thanks, regards !
Hi there, @Bubugian
Same here. I'v replaced classic TP-link routers (3 of them) with complete omada solution (4x Switch, 2xEAP110 2x EAP225) and Im having lot of this "failures", wifi work strangely and my devices are always jumping from AP to AP which also causes issues.
Tried switching of 5GHZ (helped a little bit), no QOS, nothing special, just default settings.
Often I see that I have very high Channel usage, buy it occurs very fast and often.
I solved this by setting manual channels and fine-tuned Transmit power, so devicecan easily choose, which signal is and will be better longer time, so it does not need to switch vice versa.
Second point here if maybe the WiFi signal is on "sinus" level, this could also cause clients to reconnect due to better signal from another AP.
I also tried this, but cannot confirm if it helped, still debugging:
