I've set up DD-WRT on my R7800 today it worked fine till I've encountered that bug.

Sometimes my laptop and phone just get disconnected and I have to type in the password once again. On my Phone (IPhone XR) it also sometimes says that the password which I typed in was wrong even though I typed in correctly.

Has anybody encountered something similar, can anybody help me with this problem?

Thank you very much.

update first, link below in red. if it still happens, then use vanilla firmware under the advanced wifi setting (dd-wrt firmware is quite bad for qca9984..)

The new build didn‘t fix the problem, so I‘ll try the Vanilla firmware now

Vanilla firmware didn't seem to solve the problem. But whenever I apply the settings the Advanced settings option gets unchecked, when I click it again the firmware option set to vanilla is still there though.
