Intermittent Wireless Issues

[TomT]

Hi

I have an AC68U running 376.45 (Merlin build)

I have the 2.4, 5 and Guest Wifi's enabled and find that I lose the wifi for a few minutes and then it comes back. The guest always seems to be there it's the 2.4 & 5 that disappear.

I'm also finding I have issues streaming from a PC or tablet to a wifi enabled TV, either using the TV's inbuilt media player or a chromecast.

The program I'm streaming is either located on the PC or tablet. The PC is connected via a Gigabit LAN port, the tablet via 2.4ghz wireless. We get lots of pauses and stuttering..

The 2.4 wireless is configured as :

Wireless Mode AUTO Optimized for Xbox b/g Protection
Channel bandwidth 20/40
Control Channel AUTO
Extension Channel AUTO
Authentication Method WPA2-Personnal
WPA Encryption AES

The 5 wireless is the same apart from the Channel bandwidth is 20/40/80

Any ideas how I can make this more stable.

Thanks

I would change the 2.4 bandwidth to 20 and select a non-overlapping channel which are 1, 6, and 11.
