wifi reauthenticating

I have a task scheduled at 5:00 that disables and enables a Wi-Fi interface in case it has changed channels due to radar interference. After executing it, I have an iPhone that often cannot connect to it again.

The wifi configuration is as follows

[user@hap_ac2] > interface/wifi/export 
# 2024-03-31 11:52:26 by RouterOS 7.14.2
# software id = G48Y-1U35
#
# model = RBD52G-5HacD2HnD
# serial number = XXXXXXX
/interface wifi security
add authentication-types=wpa2-psk,wpa3-psk connect-priority=0/1 disabled=no ft=yes ft-over-ds=\
    yes name=sec1 wps=disable
/interface wifi
set [ find default-name=wifi1 ] channel.band=2ghz-n .frequency=2412 .width=20mhz \
    configuration.country=Spain .mode=ap .ssid=Miwifi .tx-power=6 disabled=no security=sec1

I had wifi reauthenticating loop after upgrading my hap ax^3 to router os 7.15.0 on 2.4 gHz wifi.

  • First I tried to upgrade to latest version (7.15.2) and also upgrade ROUTERBOARD firmware but it didn’t helped
  • Then in system > packages I uninstalled wifi-qcom and uploaded routeros version 7.12.2 with wifi-wave package and clicked on downgrade, after rebooting it was the same. I also downgraded firmware to 7.12.2. I tried to restore a back that I take exactly on version 7.12.2 but still wifi2 and its slave had problems.
  • After that I did a reset factory with plugging in power cable and waiting for LED flushing. It solves the wifi reauthenticating issue and I restored again my backup and it was functional.
    Update (23-08-2024):
  • I faced the issue again after a day. After doing the above instructions again the issue persists and didn’t work anymore but I after removing USB flash drive from the router I accidently saw that the problem resolved. So I can say the root of the issue at least for me was USB flash drive and may be setting up container store and temp folder on that drive.

I have exactly the same problem! What ROS version do you have now?

Parden me for the typo It was 7.15.2

Hello. I’m have same issue with ax3.

Problems with 2.4GHz WiFi when USB3 device is really close to AP are known and already discussed on this forum: Wifi connection deteriorated with USB device attached
