The problem is back again unfortunately. There are 2 things I also have noticed.

 

When I tried to re-add my LG Airco unit it said "You need to have a 2,4Ghz network. The current wifi network has 5Ghz." But I have 2,4Ghz turned on and my mobile is connected with 5Ghz. I even tried turning off 5Ghz no succes. Did I break the system?

 

And what I noticed is I am trying to login the main Deco unit through the Web UI to check the logging. When I fill in my password it logs in and after 3 seconds or so I am forced logged off. I also have some criticals and errors in the logging that I do not understand. What is that about?

I have witnessed some bizarre things, but Deco completely astonishes me.

 

I have transferred all devices from the Guest to the Main SSID. However, some devices continue to reconnect to the Guest network. When I check the settings on the device itself, it clearly shows the Main SSID without any alternate options.

 

I have even reset the device and rebooted the Deco units, but they still end up on the guest network. Prior to this, I had reset the entire Deco network.

Moreover, the network has stabilized for most devices. Yet, there are still a few devices that intermittently lose connection or cannot be added to the network. I am using Netwatch, and as shown in the screenshot, the devices keep going offline every 15 seconds or so, sometimes remaining offline. Some of the devices are connected via power line and do not require Wi-Fi to be on during sleep.

 

The screenshot was taken at 22:14.

On the first screenshot, devices that constantly lose connection. On the second, devices that are much more stable after a reboot of the Deco units at around 21:21. The temperature/motion sensors do have Wi-Fi sleep functionality and can disconnect from Wi-Fi when no movement is detected. In the first screenshot, all devices need to stay "UP."

 

 

As you can see on screenshot. These devices shouldn't be still connected with guest network!

 

 

Update:

 

I have observed that connection drops occur most frequently on the ground floor. The first floor experiences significantly fewer drops, and the second floor almost none.

• On the ground floor, there are three Deco units: 2x M4R and 1x Main X60.
• On the first floor, there are two Deco units: 1x M4R and 1x X60.
• On the second floor, there is only 1x X60 Deco connected via a backhaul cable.

 

 

I analyzed the graphs generated by Netwatch and created a visual representation of the devices in my network that are experiencing these connection issues. The diagram includes only those devices that support 2.4GHz. Notably, my mobile phone, laptop, and tablet, which operate on the 5GHz band, never lose connection.

I also noticed that my mobile phone toggles Wi-Fi 6 on and off, indicating it is frequently switching between the M4R and X60 units, since the M4R does not support Wi-Fi 6. However, this switching does not result in any connection drops. This leads me to believe that the issue may be specific to the 2.4GHz connection.

 

I'm still frustrated by the fact that I'm being forcibly logged out of the Main Deco web UI every 15 seconds, and that only the first floor is experiencing frequent dropouts. Noticably the Main Deco also becomes hot getting inbetween 35-50 celsius. The current CPU load is 2% with 57% RAM usage. I don't know if that is normal.

 

Please see the attached image for the wireless devices connected via 2.4GHz.

 

 

 

Edit:

 

Now my wired devices show up as "Offline" in my Deco client list. But my wired devices are not directly plugged to the Deco routers but to the Mikrotik switch together with 2 deco's. Why is this happening?

Hi Josheph, someone,

 

Is there a solution?

 

It still keeps bugging me that wifi is unstable. I am only using the 3x X60 Deco's. When my connections are unstable I can still access my mikrotik router, modem and other devices their GUI. But I noticed the Main Deco GUI is the only one I can't access. Only after restart.

 

After restart it keeps logging me out every 5 seconds or so.

 

See screenshot for broken Main Deco GUI.
