iPhone temporarily drops X55 connection / DHCP issue?
I have a mesh network with Deco X55 units.
Sometimes my iPhone devices will temporarily drop the wifi connection for a minute or two while I am using it. This occurs while I am sitting (not moving around) with a strong wifi signal.
If I check my iPhone wifi settings when this happens, the phone sees the deco wifi ssid, but it shows a generic IP address for my device (169.xxxxxxxxx). After a few minutes the connection resumes and my device IP address is updated (192.168.xxx.xxx).
This issue affects every iPhone device in my
home. No other devices are affected.
iPhone settings are:
- private wifi address (private MAC) is OFF
- IP settings (dhcp) is automatic
Deco settings are:
- router setup
- security is WPA2
- dhcp server is enabled
- QoS is disabled
- parental controls are disabled
- fast roaming and beam forming are on
- mesh technology for this device is on
- preferred band is auto
