Bug Fixes:

• Fixes issue where an SXR80 in AP mode stalls during start up when assigned a static IP and connected with an Ethernet cable. Workaround: If this happens before updating the firmware to v3.2.1.102, remove the Ethernet cable to allow the AP to finish the startup process, and then update the firmware.

Known Issues:

• After updating the router firmware, existing clients can be steered to the router because the wireless readiness in the router is faster than the wireless readiness in the satellite. Workaround: Connected clients might notice slower throughput or a weaker signal, which resolves when the user roams or reconnects.
• When link aggregation applies on WAN ports, removing the cable from one of the ports disconnects Internet access. Workaround: Keep two cables on aggregated WAN ports.
• WPA3-Enterprise might not work with iPhone 11 (supports 802.11ax) and above on iOS 14 and above. Workaround: Do not use WPA3-Enterprise.
• The device UI can be accessed via the default VLAN network only. Workaround: Connect to a WiFi network that uses the default VLAN profile when you want to access the device UI.
