Random disconnecting from devices & very poor upload speeds

Hi,

As the title suggests, WiFi keeps dropping from some devices; a couple of Samsung phones, A Toshiba Smart TV and a Microsoft Surface 4. The phones report an 'Authentication Error' usually when they try to automatically reconnect, but reconnect when manually forced to.
As for the upload speed, it's actually slower than the 'slower' speed i switched away from. Any fixes would be appreciated!

Are you both using the Hub1? If so, try unlinking the 2.4/5Ghz frequencies - details on the ' My Router' board.

@patti What router are you using then? If you want help from the community, please start your own topic with as much information as possible, and I (or other experienced members) will try and help.
