I'd be curious to know if 9117 has the updated SDK requested from QTN that was identified

Although the new 5GHz driver can improve 5G Disconnection issue, we found it will cause battery drain for Android devices.
Already forward this to QTN for new SDK.

in this post over in the 9110 thread, or if we can eagerly anticipate that that request will be implemented in a future firmware

New 5Ghz SDK is probably not in this build.

Not yet. QTN is still handling this issue.
 
Yes, this new SDK is for improving 5G connection but hasn't solved battery drain issue.

I'd like to talk to you about this, wondering why... there's no good reason there - wearing my ex-802.* hat - feel free to contact me via PM
 
After my test, I found that after using 2WAN, open "firewall" - "boot DOS protection" causes the LAN port and WIFI can not work properly, turn off the "DOS protection" Everything is normal. Hoping to get repaired, thank you!

...ok...so, for this build, no more disconnections on 5Ghz and still Android battery draining. But what about Beamforming and MU-MIMO activation?

P.S. I enabled the Beamforming (both) for 5 Ghz and i have no problems so far but i'm not sure if it's indeed working or not...
Thank you in advance and have a nice day!

Beamforming seems to be working since 9110...
 
Did you enable Universal beamforming or other beamforming... ?
 
Not sure if I expected any change on this from 9110 but, for the record, the IPad Air 2 still consistently drops out of 5Ghz after about 1 min sleep and then continually re-joins and drops on 3 minute cycles until/if it swaps to 2.4Ghz where it will remain connected indefinitely.

If you refresh the wireless log you can see the Tx rate drop after about 30 secs from, say 350M, to "7M" or similar small value, then after another 30 secs or so the iPad disconnects from the radio.

None of my other iDevices seem to do the same, including the iPhone 6. Previous discussion suggests this may be an IOS 9 thing. Not tried 9.0.2 yet.

Edit: Still the same on 9.0.2
