    ZenWifi Pro ET12 Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 6ghz connection problem on node

    So I guess a little snark pays off once in a while ... :D

    Lenovo P15 Gen 2 w/Intel AX210 Doesn't Like Wifi 6 on ET12

    No difference. I've even removed the Poly-supplied headset specific adapter without any change in connection behavior.

    Lenovo P15 Gen 2 w/Intel AX210 Doesn't Like Wifi 6 on ET12

    I don't think this is necessarily an ET12 problem, but that's the only wifi solution I have to test with. Running Windows 10 Pro 21H2 build 19044.2251. I have an ET12 mesh that is configured for dual-band AX (2.4/5GHz, both bands available via a single SSID). I have dozens of 2.4 and 5GHz...

    ASUS ET12 issues when 6GHz enabled

    This is odd. I have an ET12 pair (parent and 1 child) and multiple webcams on 2.4Ghz with rock-solid connectivity (so much better than I had with the Netgear Orbi RBKE963 6E mesh with router and 2 satellite nodes). A couple of significant differences in my configuration, though: The ET12 setup...

    ZenWifi Pro ET12 Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 6ghz connection problem on node

    I don't believe it's strictly a Samsung issue, and explained why in post #30.

    ZenWifi Pro ET12 Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 6ghz connection problem on node

    I have half a dozen emails from ASUS on this topic preceding the two I just posted. The snarky one was the only one to get a remotely useful response. I'll also be updating my review on Amazon. That's often resulted in attention from the manufacturer in the past ...

    ZenWifi Pro ET12 Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 6ghz connection problem on node

    My latest interactions with ASUS Support regarding this issue. My somewhat snarky response to yet another identical list of generic troubleshooting steps: ASUS' Response: And my followup: The saga continues ...

    ZenWifi Pro ET12 Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 6ghz connection problem on node

    Also, an update on my ticket ... I responded with considerably snarkiness when ASUS told me to perform the exact same steps I'd already completed multiple times with two sets of ET12s. I told them to stop wasting my time and find someone @ ASUS with a Samsung Tab 8/Plus/Ultra or a Z-Fold 3 or 4...

    ZenWifi Pro ET12 Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 6ghz connection problem on node

    The ET-12 supports Tri-band Smart Connect, so connecting to 2.4 or 5GHz via WPA2/WPA3-Personal and transitioning to 6E with WPA3 seems like a possibility. But I'm admittedly not an expert on this stuff. As I mentioned previously, I have my 6GHz network configured with its own SSID so there...

    ZenWifi Pro ET12 Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 6ghz connection problem on node

    I have the 6E network set up with its own SSID, so no transition from WPA2 to WPA3 (or vice versa).

    ZenWifi Pro ET12 Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 6ghz connection problem on node

    Yes, both the original set and the new ones. Are you having a different experience with an ET12 configuration? What's the reference to USB drives? The ET12s don't have USB ports ...

    ZenWifi Pro ET12 Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 6ghz connection problem on node

    I seem to get better performance on 5GHz than 6, but that might be related to the 6GHz radio also handling the backhaul.

    ZenWifi Pro ET12 Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 6ghz connection problem on node

    Replacements didn't arrive until today. Finished setting them up about an hour ago and just got back from dropping the originals off for return to AMZN at the UPS Store. Same results ... S21U connects to 6E fine on both nodes, Tab S8 Plus connects to 6E only on the parent node.

    Replacement ET12s arrive on Wednesday. I'll definitely post a follow-up ...

    ZenWifi Pro ET12 Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 6ghz connection problem on node

    Additional note: I'm still (fortunately) within my return window with Amazon and have requested an exchange. I suspect I will have the same experience with the replacement unit, but in the end, I believe this is a firmware problem that will eventually be rectified once enough people experience...

    ZenWifi Pro ET12 Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 6ghz connection problem on node

    After an extremely slow exchange with ASUS' support, they're now saying now that my ET12 has a hardware issue and they're issuing me an RMA. This is a pretty stupid response, given that I get the same results swapping the "parent" for the "child" node (I can connect to the "parent" node @ 6GHz...

    ZenWifi Pro ET12 Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra 6ghz connection problem on node

    This thread is a little old, but I felt I should mention that I am experiencing the same issue. My Samsung S21U phone works fine on 6GHz with both the primary and secondary ET12s, but my Tab S8+ works only on the primary. That said, I had no issues with 6E connectivity on any node of my previous...

    Dumping my NetGear RBKE963 6E Mesh -- AP Alternatives with Wireless Backhaul?

    Well, I have to say that the wireless backhaul on the RBKE963 is blazingly fast and continues to work very well even when the wifi connectivity issues occur. It's primarily the connectivity with IoT devices that required me to reboot weekly. I just figured that someone else would have figured...
