What iOS versions are currently loaded on the iPhones and iPads?

I'm seeing the same issues on FOUR iPhones and THREE iPads. It seems that any distance away from the 890L with SC enabled will cause the wifi signal to drop and the devices switch to cellular or no connection. All devices prior to being disconnected have a FULL / STRONG WIFI SIGNAL.  No issues w/ previous firmware. This doesn't seem to be a problem on the iMac, MacBook Pro Retina, or MacBook Air.  Perhaps an issue w/ devices running iOS and not OS X???   Might need to go back to previous firmware as this is not acceptable. 

I'm also noticing issues when running speed tests on the iOS devices (iPhones / iPads).  It seems I'm only getting 30% - 45% of my subscribed ISP speeds (100 down / 5 up).  As the speed test is running, the speeds decrease as the test nears it's completion for DOWNLOAD only.  Upload appears to be fine.

I'm wondering if the issue might be one of the 5GHz radios (Primary), as speed tests run on an OS X device (iMac / MacBook Pro Retina / MacBook Air) are 100 down / 5 up on the 5GHz Secondary radio.

I was really hoping this latest firmware update wouldn't cause issues.  I remember the same type of issue w/ the DGL-5500 where a newer firmware update was actually MUCH WORSE than the previous firmware.  Hopefully D'LINK can look into these issues we're experiencing with the 890L sooner than later 

All iOS devices are updated to latest software version.

As I posted no disconnects with SC off... Turn it on and once at a distance the disconnects start.

Thanks for the feed back. Did you have SC enabled or disabled when you were using v1.10?

Also  went back to the previous firmware (1.09.14). It did solve my problems with my iPhone6s (x2) and iPad.

I was having wifi disconnect problems with SC ENABLED and DISABLED

Well - I'm non Apple here.. no issues with wifi disconnect.. just issues getting out to internet with s/c.

Will know tomorrow if issues persist.

Would you guys happen to see this "disconnected" when it would fail to go to the internet?

 I never saw it when the issue with my devices happend.

(I only saw it tonight when the webpage timed out and I was forcibly disconnected (silently)).

Me too....Both Enable and disable. With SC enable it was a problem every day, With Disable not as frequent. But still a problem.  Biggest problem was that the whole unit suddenly disconnects from internet totally and freezes.

You send me ur info and config file from v1.10?

I would like you to move the DIR-890l up to where the main host router is and test with v1.10 if possible.
I'm not seeing any internet disconnect with my 890L as main host router connected to a SB 6121 modem.

Installed the 1.10 today using the standard procedure.  Major issues with wifi disconnects.  My Roku 4, which has been 100% rock solid with this router on all other firmware, can't hold a connection at all.  My Chromecast Audio also bugged out on the hi-fi.  This was all the case with SC enabled (and which was never an issue before).

Reverting back to previous 1.09 solved it all.  Like others said, it is a shame since the new features looked and sounded great.

Any chance you can collect some data using v1.10 out lined here: http://forums.dlink.com/index.php?topic=65499.msg273136#msg273136 then revert back to v1.09?

Kewl, let us know what you find out. Hope it good.

I'm debating on upgrading.

NO GO! Same problem any distance from router it drops!

Far as the new iOS goes I like it!

Ok, thanks for trying. I hope the next FW update will have it fixed.

Just wanted to add my experience to this.  I had the same problems as the others.  iPhones & Android devices were constantly disconnecting with v.1.10 b07.  Laptops and several other devices connected via Wifi did not seem to have any problems.

Reverted to the previous release and all is good again. 

Thanks!

Thanks for you input and feed back. We hope it will be fixed on next update. Please be patient.

Thank you.

I just signed into my router and it is now prompting me to upgrade to 1.10 (no release suffix specified), with a release date of 9/21/2016.     Do you suppose that they have fixed 1.10 for auto-update?  The support site still lists 1.10.B07 with a release date of 8/23/2016.
