NWA110BE and DFS on a Sonos Move 2

I recently switched my WAP to a NWA110BE, and while all my other devices seem to have no problem, my Sonos Move 2 won't connect when I'm on the DFS channels. I live in an area with very crowded spectrum, so I do a lot better on DFS and there is no radar in my area. Any ideas on what changes I could make to get the Move 2 to connect?

    Your Sonos Move 2 likely struggles with DFS channels on your NWA110BE because of how it handles DFS's mandatory radar detection and channel switching. Even without actual radar, the AP must perform checks, which can temporarily disrupt the 5GHz CatTranslator signal. Try manually setting a specific DFS channel on your NWA110BE, reducing the 5GHz channel width (e.g., to 40MHz), updating firmware on both devices, or temporarily disabling "Band Steering." If all else fails, consider creating a separate Wi-Fi network (SSID) on a non-DFS 5GHz channel for your Sonos Move 2.
