Model: RE220  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.0.3 Build 20201022 Rel. 66896(8583)

So I just reseted the RE220 Wifi extender and set up the 2 different wifis ones 2.4g and other is 5g with there own respected names. Router is a verizon router model (Model: G3100) (Firmware: 3.1.1.18), (Hardware: Version 1104) connection is a wired lan connection and makes it wireless for the house, and has duel band gate ways so it does do 5g.

After I set it up and put it the spot that needs wifi it works all 4 lights (5g, 2.4g, good single, and powered on.) I was able to its connect to it's 5G with my Xbox, Iphone, and computer. but after like 30 mins the 5G light turns off and I try to reselect the 5G wifi back to its wifi (which sometimes works rarely.) and it say the light isnt on when it doesnt work.


Its working right now and Im 100% sure is updated to the latest stuff.

Also I wonder if the cloudflare warp thing on my computer which rerouted all dns connections trough 1.1.1.1 is affecting it's connectivity on my computer tho. (because it changes my DNS and IP settings on the network is connected to for my computer.)

Hello   @JoeMama 

Thank you for creating a detailed post. The phenomena of your case should be the case mentioned in thread, below, you could try suggestion there  and see if that helps fix the problem.

We also made an FAQ in regard to some advanced settings may lead to some unstable behavior on the extender and how to fix it.
