Pixel 8 experiences intermittent instability when connecting to TP-Link Be85's MLO network
While Pixel 7a and Pixel 6a can connect seamlessly to the MLO network of the TP-Link Be85 Wi-Fi router, the latest Pixel 8 model exhibits intermittent instability when connected to the same network. The connection doesn't drop entirely, but rather fluctuates between bursts of high speed and slowdowns to as low as 1 Mbps. Troubleshooting the root cause of this issue has proven challenging, and I would appreciate your insights.
Additional details:
- The issue is specific to the Pixel 8; other devices on the network (including Pixel 7a and Pixel 6a) function without any connectivity problems.
- The MLO network is configured correctly and has been working reliably with other devices.
- The issue persists regardless of the Pixel 8's proximity to the router.
- Software updates on both the Pixel 8 and the TP-Link Be85 router have been applied.
Thank you very much for the update.
I would like to forward your case to the senior engineers and check whether they have any other suggestions.
Please check later whether you can receive my email later.
By the way, can you help me check the following details when pixel 8 dropped to as low as 1 Mbps:
