@DaveFromBoca 

Good day.

Thank you very much for your time and patience.

Sorry for the delay.

Since I have seen that you posted three threads and for the TP-Link router, do you have Deco M9 plus?

If yes, have you tried the beta firmware listed here:

Deco M9 Plus_V1: https://static.tp-link.com/2020/202009/20200917/Deco_M9Plus_V1_1.4.3.zip

 

Deco M9 Plus_V2: https://static.tp-link.com/2020/202009/20200917/Deco_M9Plus_V2_1.4.3.zip

 

For the RE650, after you update the beta firmware, then configure the RE device to re-associate the front-end through the web page Quick Setup (Tether is not recommended).

 

Please note:

Our Range Extenders use Auto security mode by default, which supports WPA2+AES, and TKIP to be compatible with the devices that only support old encryption methods. If the Apple devices detect that the wireless connection a weak encrypted network,  'the weak security' would show up there. But in fact, IOS devices would still prefer the secure encryption method WPA2+AES, instead of TKIP when connecting to the range extenders, and users do not need to worry about the potential security issue.

 

Thank you very much for your understanding and support.

@Solla-topee AS STATED, I HAVE BOTH THE RE650 and RE200 WIRELESS EXTENDERS. BOTH HAVE THIS ISSUE, WILL NOT CONNECT TO MY ASUS RT-3200 ROUTER VIA AES, AND THE ASUS IS SET TO AES ENCRYPTION. ALL OTHER IOS AND WIN 10 DEVICES THAT CONNECT DIRECTLY TO THE ASUS ROUTER CONNECT VIA AES. BUT WHEN CONNECTING VIA THE RE650 OR RE200 EXTENDERS, WILL ONLY CONNECT VIA TKIP. BOTH YOUR DEVICES HAVE BEEN UPDATED TO LATEST FIRMWARE. YOUR REPLIES ARE NONSENSICAL AND DO NOT ADDRESS THIS VERY SERIOUS ISSUE.
