Hello - My iphone keeps connecting then disconnecting to WiFi frequently (every 5-10 seconds or so). Other end points like iPad, Mac, PC, etc experience similar issues.

Setup is as follows:

DSL modem (C3000A)--wired cable--Deco(first floor)

--wired cable--Deco(second floor)

--wired cable--Deco(first floor, other side of home)

All three Deco's are hard wired directly to DSL modem using one port each of the 5 ports available on the DSL modem.

SSID/Password is set to the same on DSL modem and all three Decos including frequencies 2.4 and 5.0. So same SSID/Password on everything.

Operating Mode = Access Point

Fast Roaming = Disabled

Beamforming = Enabled

Thanks in advance for input.

I did another reboot of everything and on occasion now it drops the connection, says incorrect password, and asks to reenter the password. Same password is set for everything so not sure why it would say incorrect password. Any assistance would be great.
