Running 23.03.0
I've seen it in the past but disabling "Disassociate On Low Acknowledgement" has fixed this previously.
I've changed some settings that previous threads have suggested.
config wifi-iface 'default_radio1'
option device 'radio1'
option network 'lan'
option mode 'ap'
option macaddr 'xxxxxxx'
option ssid 'yyyyyy'
option encryption 'psk2'
option key 'zzzzzz'
option skip_inactivity_poll '1'
option max_inactivity '43200'
option disassoc_low_ack '0'
Here's what happens with it:

This device will connect to an access point on my phone no problem.
I tried going back to v19 firmware earlier today, but that didn't seem to solve the issue.
