I have had some problems with two P4 and their WiFi connection at my job. It have been slow and sometimes I had problems with the connection to MyGHL. A month ago I solved the problem with slow connection when we are "in house". I use the internal web page in the P4. As it is now - we have a very slow internet connection to my workplace - we use the 4G network - we can´t expect fast connection to myGHL but we should expect fast connection inside our network. Internal - we use an ASUS router in order to create an "in house" wifi Network. The distances between the P4 and the wifi router is short - 5 - 6 m but there is very much electric noise in the part where we have the temporary aquariums. It works with a charm - fast connections and stable - but only for a while.........
Last week - I got slow and intermittent connections to the P4 that´s was placed 6 m away (the other 4 m away). Its start when I start another P3.1 in a new system. I could not see the connections between this two events. After a day or two - its start to work well again but yesterday it was worse than ever. I track down the problem to be on the WiFi side because the internal web pages of our P3:s works fast and reliable. I could not access the internal webpage from my PC (that use a thread connection to my router) but I could access both P4:s through myGHL. Talk about understanding nothing. To be sure that the internal web page not was corrupt - I reinstall latest update - still the same problem. The ASUS router is an Asus RT-AC68U and brand new. After looking for the fault at the profilux side of the problem - I start to look on the router side. Could it be some settings that cause this problem. I start to seek in the setup page in the router. In advanced - wireless settings I found this (the example is from my own router ASUS Blue Cave) in the red marking
I deactivated the roaming assistant - and voila - it works as a charm again
This was an ASUS router but I´m rather sure that you can find the same settings in other routers,
Edit - maybe this is the problem with some mesh networks - the RSSI is set in a way that the system stop to roam the signal. I do not use my router as a part of a mesh network. Neither an expert of mesh networks
