Hi all,

 

I recently upgraded some of my EAPs, specifically I replaced 3 EAP225 v.3 with 1xEAP653 and 2xEAP613. One of the first things I noticed is that two specific devices, an Airport Express Gen 2 (model A1392), as well as my brand new Nuki Smart Lock 4 PRO do not connect to the EAP613's, but connect fine to the EAP653! My settings are the same for all access points. I do not have problems with any of the other (many) devices connecting to any of the access points. It seems that these two devices see the networks, try to connect but fail. If I move them within the range of the EAP653 (or any of my older EAP225 ones), they happily connect.

 

Has anyone faced anything similar?

 

Thank you

Hi @echamakiotis 

Could you check the encryption you have set up for these EAP? Could you try to disable the WPA3 and see whether the affected devices will be able to connect or not?

Hi  @echamakiotis 

It's hard to say, but from my experience it looks like encrytion AES took the effect. 

Once you choose Auto, the EAP can also support TKIP. 

 Airport Express is a good product, it's a pity Apple stops supporting it for a long time.
