I've had my XE75s for 3 weeks now and everything has been good... EXCEPT for two issues which are plaguing me.

First of all, I have 2 MacBook Pros (one for work, one for personal use) and I noticed that Reddit was showing the offline banner whenever I left it open in a tab and closed the lid for a short period of time. I also had a brief offline message when trying to upload photos to Facebook - both issues are not ones I've had in the past. Having taken my MBP to another house today, it didn't occur on their Wi-Fi, so it definitely appears related to my Decos.

I can recreate the issue as any point by simply turning off the Wi-Fi on my Mac, so it appears the Deco is dropping the connection once the laptop has gone to sleep, a behavior that isn't usual. Does anybody have any ideas about this at all? Anything I can try? I've read the maybe turning off the beam forming may be an answer.

I've also had issue with making video calls, where I'm simply loosing bandwidth. I have an app that I can run that shows me my bit-rate and it's all over the place - this didn't occur with my previous routers. Could these 2 issues be related or is this something else?

I'm less than a week away from being able to return these to the retailer and get a refund so I'm keen to try and find a solution.
