Flashed an EA4500 with 19.07, disabled disassoc_low_ack, wpa_group_rekey as well as short_preamble, yet still getting dropped connections from various Androids connected to this EA4500 which is used exclusively as wifi, no WAN port plugged/used..
sshing into the openwrt router and pinging a connected android 9 device returns very crazy numbers:

--- 192.168.1.86 ping statistics ---
48 packets transmitted, 29 packets received, 39% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 39.232/5795.628/12516.770 ms
as shown, sometimes few ms, other times SECONDS for a single ping, and 30% drop, there is no other signal in the area..
Question, is there an "easy" way to "validated" the box from hardware standpoint, i.e. maybe this is a hardware issue ? any counters/logs? in logread, not seeing anything glaring..
Thanks for any tips/hints.
Stormy.
