Occasional Red "Wifi" Symbol

I had some WLAN errors with my Radios also.

In former days, it worked well, but a Firmware Update on my WLAN router FritzBox deactivated 802.11b silently.

I tested all posibel WLAN configurations withe 3 Radios playing in parallel. At least for my devices, as soon as I enabled 802.11n+g+b again, everything worked very well. Maybe, you give it a try:

WLAN-Standard
Mit dieser Einstellung legen Sie einen WLAN-Standard für das 2,4-GHz-Band fest. Für das 2,4-GHz-Band sind das die Standards "802.11n+g", "802.11b+g" und "802.11n+g+b".

Greetings and a merry Christmas.

This n+g+b issue has come up in several threads, in various guises. Heavens, it will be very annoying for many folks - using all sorts of older devices - if router firmware updates silently toss b or even g out of the window..... I'm not sure many folks would think to look for that, or frankly know anything about the innards of their router; and I wonder if every older, firmware-updated router allows b to be restituted by user choice.

Same issues here with my 3 Radios (not with the Booms!), suddenly connection troubles.

I can boil it down to to:
* Update the WLAN AP Friztbox 7590 v7.21 to 7.24 beta (MESH-WLAN-Changes)

I fixed it by:
* reenabling my old legacy AP TP-Link WR841n, which I will now use for all legacy clients
