My 6GHz band got a lot slower after this update Device: iPhone 17 Pro Max and iPad Pro M4 both with iOS 26.3, how ironic

Improved Wi-Fi roaming compatibility and stability for iOS 26 devices.

Flashed. No problems here, everything works as it should S25 Ultra Samsung, and all other new devices.

Enhanced stability for 2.5G LAN/WAN port operations - I didn't have any problem on previous firmware, so hopefully they didn't screw something up with this. I have 2gbps network connected via WAN.

That's reassuring. Only had my BE98 for a couple of weeks paired with a BQ16. It took me several days to get everything working properly so have been reluctant to upgrade the FW but will now do so

Did you ever fix your iOS devices ? I had issues on my TP-Link router setup as well, and for me It turned out to be a couple of things. Also keep in mind when I give you what fixed my issues, that I'm using and iPad Air M3, and an iPhone 15 Pro Max, so WiFi 6E, instead of 7.

For me, I had turned on TWT, and OFDMA+Mu-Mimo in my settings, and in theory these are supposed to help with modern devices. Well because my network is a mix of mostly older devices, with only the two modern ones (in terms of WiFi specs), it was actually causing speeds to drop. There was also another issue in my specific case that the Asus router may not have. TP-Link, has a known glitch with some of their WiFi routers where running a WiFi 6E device on the 6Ghz with 320 Mhz enabled, will cause the 6Ghz radio to either disappear completely, or be visible, but lose the internet connection. I had the second one, where it lost the internet, but was still visible.

So, to translate to your situation, I believe Apple may only allow up to 160 Mhz for WiFi 7, as well as 6E, try disabling 320 Mhz, and OFDMA+MU-MIMO, if they are enabled.

One other final thought, Apple has known WiFi bugs with iOS 26, so it may not even be the router. However, the suggestions above will help see which side it's on, and to see if your router might be behaving similar to how mine was.

Anyone having issues on some andorid devices like tablet to disconnect and reconnect from time to time ?

I got this error in log

wlceventd: wlceventd_proc_event(662): wl0.1: Disassoc C6:CB:C3:0B:93:CB, status: 0, reason: Disassociated because sending station is leaving (or has left) BSS (8), rssi:0


I don't noticed that on my other android devices, so I was wondering if it has to do something with tablet settings or some wifi 5Ghz settings, because it is connected on 5Ghz network.

interference, movement of client, energy savings on client, ......

Tablet is like half meter from router, and not moving. It happends while browsing it disconnects and even when I try to connect to 2.4 it struggles to connect and won't connect to it.

My brother told me today that on his phone same thing happend, just random once a day during browsing on internet it disconnects. I never noticed this behaviour on my S23 Ultra or now on S25 Ultra. His tablet is S8+ and phone is S24. I checked in logs what happend with his device in logs and this is what happend
