Hello everyone,
I am using a Mikrotik router and TP-link mesh wifi as wifi hotspot transmitter.
Does anyone have issues with wifi constantly dropping almost each time your apple device (iOs 16) goes to standby?
This has happened since I updated my iPhone & iPad to the very first version of ios 16. I have an old iPad, android, and other devices with iOs 15 and there is no such issue.
I have tried to change some settings regarding hotspot in server profiles, such as disabling and enabling cookie, mac cookie. However this only gives different behaviour to the general connection dropping. Sometime when the apple devices goes back from standby, the wifi sign is still there, however there is no internet connection at all, I have to disconnect and then reconnect re-login, and then internet works. Some other times (mostly), wifi sign is dropped, I have to go to settings, click at my wifi, and captive portal appears, there it goes I have to re-login and get the internet back. This has happened for months.
Now that I know talking to apple feedback forum would not help me. Does anyone in here knows anything about this?
What kind of problem is iOs 16 having with Mikrotik hotspot system and How do I fix this?
