SE210 booster FW latest

@TimmyBGood @Chrisee @mae-3

I was updated to FW 0500 version, and although was not expecting this my experience

over the last 2 week's have not been too good with it.

I run the SR203, the SE210 and Powerline WiFi for the Ringdoorbell, plus 1 more extender and know

that it's not the best combo, but this is mostly for the 2.4ghz band split at router.

Channel 1 keep for the SR203, RE mostly jumps on this but does not cause issues....

Channel 6 has the Powerline, always seems happy, and the SE210 like to take Channel 11.

So they all were not causing any real problems.

Since the SE210 updated IT always follows the SR203 now, no matter what i do...

Works fine for a couple of days then start to fight with each other...

The SE210 i switched off 3 days ago as i thought it was the issue, and have been running fine since.

Does anyone have any thoughts, no wireless is a mine field when not working good.

Will keep the booster off just now as everything is settled down again.

As you know, its not easy to do any config of the booster, but been working well and realy don't

think there is an issue with the device, apart from it's new channel assignment that happens now.

Regards Jim

@JimM1 the Sky devices should not interfere one with the other as they produce a mesh wifi network. That does not apply of course to third party devices.

@Chrisee

Thanks for the reply, the only difference that is clearly vissible now is that the Booster

will always jump to the same channel as the router when previouslly it would always avoid

with router on Ch1 and booster on Ch11. Will try again later, and power of the RE that we have,

although you can set the CH on it, it has allways worked is way back to the router and never

caused any issues, only when there is 3 of them on now, they all want to sit on the same channel

which i believe from your statement may cause an issue. I've normally set router to CH6 and watched

the booster be on CH1 or CH11...

Thanks Jim

@JimM1 Sky could have vhanged the behaviour as 3 or more Q mesh units would completly fill the 2.4GHz band which has caused issues in many locations but that is a guess. However as I said it shouldn't cause issues
