Mobile devices not automatically connecting back to AP when coming within range

Model: EAP110  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version:

I have observed that all our mobile devices at home fail to connect automatically back to the AP once we get home.  It is a mix of Android and IOS devices.  Each of us had to manually connect the registered SSID from our devices.  As I have checked each, all the devices have the option to 'connect within range' enabled.  I've deployed different APs in our home, and this is the first time I've encountered this scenario.

 

As for the AP settings, the advanced options are turned off as well as the u-apsd and ofdma.  I'm pretty sure there's something I'm missing from the AP config, not sure what it is.  Any guidance pls?

  @Virgo advanced features in my config is disabled.  I'll give it a try, but by definition of those settings, I don't see what they have to do with mobile devices not connecting when in range.  Or am I missing something from how I understand those advanced settings work?

As I see, your issue is related to EAP performance and Clients' roaming mechanism.

Enabling these advanced settings will help client devices roam better.
