ZenWiFi BT8 disconnection loop iPhone and Mac

deiacovo

I've 4 BT8s configured in router mode and connected with an ethernet backhaul. My iPhone 14pro and my Mac (M2) frequently (daily) enter in a loop of connection and disconnection from Wifi (every 2-3 seconds). This happens also if I'm in the same room of the main router or of a mesh node.

I've a standard configuration with a single SSID.

The only way to mitigate the problem is to delete the network from my iPhone configuration and configure it again.

What can I do?

Yeah I haven't seen the issue since switching to the Beta firmware - looks like it's on the website too now:

Try updating your BT8 firmware, separating 2.4GHz/5GHz SSIDs, checking Wi-Fi channels for interference, adjusting DHCP lease times, and ensuring proper mesh node placement. Also, test manual reconnection and ensure iPhone/Mac software is updated.
