Same problem here. 

I have a AX50/AX3000 and its firmware was updated last night. 

After I disabled WMM, my Samsung Galaxy S20 and my Lenovo Notebook weren't able to connect to the Wifi 5G.

Hello @Belthazor and anyone else who may report similar issues, please check my reply as follows:

 

WMM function can guarantee the packets with high-priority messages being transmitted preferentially. Remember that WMM is a subset of the IEEE 802.11e standard, which means you will get the link speed of 54 Mbps when it is disabled. It is strongly recommended to enable this function.


If you experience a slow speed issue and that's the reason why you disable the WMM, please check and confirm if the QoS is configured correctly as per this guide first, then report back if the speed is still slow:

  @Joohyun why this happen only on AX model? i have and old A7 router with QoS disabled and can get connected all my devices but when i disable on the AX73 the WMM i cant connect with any mobile device. 
This doesnt make sense to me. You have a big mess with you QoS and WMM and simply you dont want to fix this issue, its clear than a lot of people have the same problem.
