Archer AX1500 (hw. AX12 v1.0) periodically drops WiFi connections in AP mode
I have purchased this router a few days ago. Updated the firmware to the latest version. Did a HW reset, reconfigured. I set it up to run in AP mode, as I already have an Internet router which does FW, NAT, Port Forwarding, etc... The GbEth port of hte internet router (LINKSYS WRT1200AC) is plugged into the WAN GbEthernet port of AX1500 operating in AP mode (I have already tried plugging it to the LAN port of AX1500, but the problem still remained.) The problem is that AX1500 randomly drops WiFi connections and clients (eg. SAMSUNG phones and tablets running latest version of Android, and other notebooks) are having difficulties reassociating. For example, Android devices report error when I try to force reconnection.
Any idea what might be wrong?

Thanks for this. I have installed this in my routers and currently I can roam and my devices doesn't experience disconnection or unable to obtain an IP address. I will update if there will be problems or if it is not stable.

Finally it works now with the recomended new firmware: no DHCP issues, and WIFI roaming seems to work as well!
Tanks for the help!

Bom dia!
Ainda não é a solução que procuro. Preciso ligar router 1 (controler) via cabo ao router 2 (agent) e usufruir da rede mesh. No aguardo. obrigado!

Boa noite!
Instalei uma versão beta. Funciona, porém ao longo do tempo a mudança automática entre os roteadores é instável, e quando muda o segundo aparelho fica com a conexão lenta. Mudar manualmente fica perfeito, mas não automático tem problema. Já fiz reset duas vezes e o cenário é o mesmo. É possível voltar à versão anterior para beta?
*EDIT > Descobri que o fao da conexão estar lenta é por estar usando WPA3. percebi que um router esta em WPA2 e outro em WPA3. O que tem WPA3 fica mais lento.
Tks

@Tschabha @Sunshine just to let you know, after the beta firmware the drops in AP mode were fixed, but the 5GHz does not have the maximum performance, connected via cable to the AX12 in AP mode I can get the full 400Mbps from my ISP, but from the 5GHz wifi connection I reach half of the speed, like 200Mbps, 250Mbps, near to the router with any device, like laptops, iphone and so on.
Internet <- cable -> ISP device <- cable -> AX12-AP-Mode <-- 5GHz Wifi --> devices

Hi, thanks a lot for the feedback.
Could you please check the 5G link speed on the client device?
