I spent a frustrating weekend getting my Libra 2 setup. Contrasting with setting up a Kindle, it was way more work than it should be. Why? It can't stay connected to my network.

I have setup a separate 2.4 network JUST FOR IT and it still drops it constantly while synching giving me error dialog after error dialog. I finally got it to work by using my phone as a hot spot. Ridiculous.

So, has anyone figured out if there is some magic I need to do in my wifi setup in order to get a kobo product to remain connected? If this is the normal experience, I will just return it and stick to kindle. Even my Boox handled the network without issues.
