Mixed mode is flakey, problematic and not worth the hassle.

And please, again, post the signal strength and throughout when finished.

22

5GHz is 802.11a/n/ac 40Mhz
-34 dBm -33 dBm -28 dBm -32dBm -38dBm

the client connected to the ethernet cable got around 100Mbps

thats what I got last time just after a while it all goes down

23

You can try an 80 bandwidth,

We are hoping mixed mode was what it always is: the problem.

24

exactly what I was thinking 80Mhz

25

To address what?

I suggested it to increase throughput.

26

yes, that's what I was thinking, to increase throughput

I think I have to use some form of mixed mode

27

What makes you believe that?

28

every option on the main AP is mixed

29

There only WPA2/WPA3 mixed mode or WPA/WPA2 mixed mode on the AP?

30

I though you were on about 802.11a/n/ac mixed

security modes I have are WPA/WPA2-Personal or WPA/WPA3-Personal or WEP

31

Okay, then choose WPA2/WPA3 on AP but only WPA3 on the Pi.

32

I am sure that gave me issues with other devices, but I will try

33

It is best that all clients just choose one mode (WPA2 or WPA3) and all use the same cipher CCMP (AES).

34

I think I might have enabled WPA3-SAE last time, so the devices that do not support WPA3 wouldn't work, but I left that to auto this time

so SAE is set to auto so its using WPA2/WPA3 not just WPA3

I am using AES as well

just waiting 10 minutes for it to apply because DFS radar checks

PLEASE READ HERE:
for some reason I am being treated as a new user

I have a problem somewhere, no device is getting above 100Mbps download speed
upload seems to be around 200Mbps

Openwrt it treating me as a new user I can no longer post here

I'm not treating you as new.
I'm telling you, you do not need to configure your security the way you, seem to, want to

I didn't mean here

the openwrt forum system has gone crazy

Sorry @LilRedDog the system has blocked me from replying for 21 hours

35

You mean AES?, I see, you do mean SAE.
That is not advised because it is not using both, it is going to use WPA3 or WPA2 based on whatever it is thinking when it handshakes.

It does not matter which you force but force one or the other on as many clients that will agree on an encryption.
Best case would be, if you have to, for all clients to use WPA2 and CCMP-(AES).

Mixing modes and ciphers among clients is tricky and the more clients, the trickier it is.

We are trying to mitigate the APs poor options.

And:

There is absolutely no advantage to mixing either encryption or cipher if password is longer that 15 characters and using WPA2.

36

Lets see this from both if both have OpenWrt.

You asked for help and I'm providing it. You specifically said you were having trouble with stability and everyone knows mixed ciphers and/or encryption is unstable.

38

This is not an OpenWrt specific thing... it is actually the way that the Discourse forum software works for relatively new users. I don't know why it is treating you as a new user, but I don't know of any way to change the behavior that you are experiencing.

39

Staff seem to have sorted it out, so what did you want my config files

40

I was wondering how the stability was?
