Hi,
after upgrading my Archer C7 EU to firmware c7v5_[20201120-rel50406]_2020-11-20_14.00.44 to fix SMB/CIFS auth access, some device now cannot connect to the wifi network.
Sky-Q decoder (Humax), Xerox Workcentre 3225 and my Xbox360 (slim model) stopped working.
I tried with other wifi and they work ok, so it is not an HW problem, and they see the C7 network fine but cannot join it, the log on the router shows nothing.
Even with an open network they cannot join. There's a way to at least downgrade to a lower firmware? with the beta all worked fine.
Thanks.

At last, problem solved. I don't know if it is a coincidence but doing the following solved the problem.
I factory reset the router from the UI.
Then, (hard) factory reset with the reset button.
Then reflashed the FirmWare.
Now, all the devices connect no problem.

That sounds great. Either a reset from the router web interface helps or reflash the firmware helps correct the issue.
