Deco M5 not working as expected.

Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version:

I've had these installed for 6 months and should not have waited so long to try and figure out why these don't work properly.  I have 3 installed units and when I am connected to one of them and walk into a different part of the house, my Samsung s9 will not pick up the signal from the nearest unit, even when no other unit is within range. If I go into my wi-fi settings and manually click on the network name, it will then connect to the nearest deco.  This is a royal pain in the rear and makes this whole system the worst I've had. I have updated the firmware and tried resetting the whole installation, but nothing has helped.  Anyone know what might be wrong?  I can't imagine this is how they are designed to work.

The seemless roaming between devices and APs has to do with routing protocols 802.11kvr.  The Galaxy S9 should be compatible with this protocol, but there could be a setting that is disable that allows this to work.  

 

1st thing to do is test with another device such as an Iphone, a tablet etc.  If they can successfully route seemlessly then the issue would be with your Galaxy S9.  If not please let us know.
