DIsable WiFi optimisation?

[adz18]

Hi, my connection recently got changed to Fibre 150+VOIP as part of the CityFibre/TT changeover in my area.

The new router is having daily issues with multiple WiFi devices where, intermittently, they cannot load data. Eventually it will be fine again, or a fix can be forced immediately by toggling WiFi off/on on the device.

3 ethernet-connected devices are working fine, and speedtests are perfect (on both wired/wireless - when the WiFi is working). All lights on the ONT are normal.

I have tried powering down the router, waiting, then restarting. The issue comes back almost immediately.

From reading the forums I understand this can be caused by WiFi optimisation constantly changing channels etc, managed by the router/TT. If this sounds likely, please go ahead and disable, as I'm more than happy to manage WiFi settings myself.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @adz18 

Let me check with the team. Is there a time you would prefer?

Hi Debbie, thanks for the update.

It's probably a long shot, but are you able to advise a time? I'll be at work and can't walk out meetings etc. I'm more than happy to continue with the text ticket system if this is more viable.

Hi Debbie, thanks for checking progress again, appreciate it.

I replied to the automated text ticket with a recap of the problem, and received a reply they would check the case. I've had no further contact since this on Wednesday, but I'm sure it's in hand and am happy to wait.
