new tp-link kasa bulb only supports 2.4ghz and does not connect to 5ghz. I will test turning off smart wifi and separating the channels later. However my assumption is it cannot connect on smart since it fails on 5ghz. Anyway to prevent (with smart enabled) a device from chosing 5ghz channels when it needs 2.4ghz only?

Bummer had to remove smart connect to fix the bulb.

 

now my bufferbloat/high ping is back on all channels tested (2.4 40hz 5.2 80hz)

Is it the setup that fails ie it can’t be setup as it tries to connect to 5Ghz?

Once set up and running what happens when you the enable smart connect?

I would also alter your 2.4 bandwidth down to the normal 20Mhz bandwidth. Is the coexistence ticked or have you forced it to 40Mhz? This can create issue too.
