Hi, it seems like the extender is gradually overloaded.

May I know how long you have had the TL-WA855RE? How many clients are connected to the extender?

Here are some suggestions:

1. Change the 2.4 GHz wireless channel on the host router to channel 1/6/11.

2. refresh the latest firmware for TL-WA855RE_V5:

Thank you very much and best regards.

Wifi cover  @David-TP  Hi David.

1) Thanks for your quick response

2) I have one Tapo 510W sec camera running of it plus my Phone when I'm in the garage.

3) Regarding the host channel. I have played with different channels and it is using channel one  20mhz channel. 

in the mean time i will check the software but believe it is the current.

Hi, Thank you for the update.

How long have you had TL-WA855RE?

You do have the latest firmware. But it is still suggested to hardware reset the 855RE once and reload the same firmware again.

If still nothing improved, it is suggested to contact the shop retailer to see whether the extender is still under warranty.

Best regards.
