My Lenovo WiFi Problem

I have had an intermittent problem with my Lenovo 11e failing to remain connected. After connecting, it would stay connected for about four minutes. Then it dropped the connection and forgot the password preventing auto reconnect. (And annoying me by requiring me to type the password again.)

Lenovo, to their credit, tried really hard to fix this, replacing the WiFi transceiver twice at my home and a few days at their North Carolina facility. After each repair, I would travel and it worked great.

Yesterday and today, I have been using this 11e to control the iEXOS 100 mount.  The mount has a server, so if you connect to it, you disconnect from the house WiFi. It seemed to work fine with the mount.

I asked SuperGrok to help me. It suggested that the problem was in my home's router. This would explain why the problem never appears when traveling. So I went to the Cadillac and connected to its router. No problem. 

SuperGrok suggested that a several year old WiFi transceiver might not handle the WPA2/WPA3 transition causing loss of connection and password. SuperGrok had me call Sparklight to change my settings. 

It was already set to WPA2 but the tech turned on something called Compatibility Mode. My 11e no longer drops connection.
