Alot of Failed connection attempts.

Hi,

 

In my setup i run a Sophos UTM v9.413-3 and i have two AP's connected to it, one AP55C and one AP30. This was working just fine for a long time, but recently i noticed my wifi connection in was getting worse, so i looked at the logging and i noticed that since december 2016 i started to get alot of failed connection attempts.

this is how it daily looks now.

This is the yearly one, where you can see it started out of the blue in december.

I do see these log messages, but im not sure if they have anything to do with it.

  • Couple days agoo i decided to make a testcase for myself. As i am pretty sure that with older versions of UTM there were no problems with the WIFI at all. 

    I installed a 2nd firewall with UTM 9.351-3 (to be exact). I changed my network so all AP's connected to that firewall and so far (we are almost 3 days further) 0 failed connection attempts!

     

    So i guess something changed in later versions (i am not sure from which version, but my guess would be that it happend somewhere after june 2016), maybe someone can help find out which versions where running around that time.

     

    Regards,
