    Systematic WIFI disconnection

    Hello.
    I installed this WiFi access point two months ago. I have to reboot this equipment every day. Every time I go home, my mobile connects to an AP that is further away than the DAP2020 and I can't find it in the list of available WiFi at home. After rebooting, it's visible again and I can connect to it... Until the next day.
    So I'm going to ask for an exchange.

    Simple and effective

    Very easy to use and configure despite the wide range of operating modes. Completely KISS.
    The killer feature: there is a switch on the back. And you realise that you don't always have to keep it on.
    The only negative point is that the manufacturer's website says "Open Source Linux" but the source code doesn't jump out at you. And it is not (yet?) in the list of hardware supported by openwrt.

    Lasted less than 9 months

    I bought two.

    The installation is easy and the performance is good.

    However, the first one, installed in November 2020 and out of order in August 2021. The WiFi diode went out, no more communication possible on ethernet either although the diode is blinking. No more DHCP, neither server nor client and Factory reset not working. Good to go in 9 months,

    I'm crossing my fingers for the second one.

    I'm ordering a replacement in case it's a bad batch.
