Enabling 6 GHz network makes 2.4 GHz clients unstable
Enabling 6 GHz network makes 2.4 GHz clients unstable
I have a 4-node wired mesh consisting of three Deco XE5300 and one XE75. So the backhaul is wired using a gigabit network switch.
Everything works, unless I enable the 6 GHz network under WiFi settings. If I do that, 2.4 GHz clients drop off the network sporadically. If I leave the the 6 GHz network off, everything is stable for months ....
Why does this happen? And what's the fix?
I have the latest available firmware for the XE5300 nodes and the XE75.

I got tired of various issues with my Deco setup, and switched to a Unifi mesh with a Unifi Cloud Gateway and 4 mesh-points. No issues at all with this setup. It just works as it is supposed to.
While cheap, Decos are poorly engineered.

I don't see these issues.
2x XE75 Pro, 1x XE70 Pro, all on 1.2.11
Lots of Tapo and Kasa smart home devices.
Perhaps the issue is with your client devices? In wireless there are always (at least) two devices involved.
BTW 1.2.12 got pulled, is no longer available, probably for a reason.
