In the Linksys Smart WiFi solotion, I receive an unexpected error 2287 when I change settings that are related to WiFi settings 5GHz1 and 5GHz2 bands on my EA9500 V2. If I try to change the SSID, the WiFi password or the security modus, the error occurs. In case I switch 5GHz bandsteering off, it is not possible to switch it on. In all cases described above I receive error 2287.
All other functionality (2.4GHz related or other functionality in other screens) works well!
The details related to error 2287 are:

What I already have done, without success:
- installed the latest firmware
- several times a 30-60 seconds reset and reinstall with laptop connected with cable
- re-installation of firmware and configuration of router
I have read in this forum that more Linksys users have faced this problem, also with other routers than the EA9500 v2, but in all cases related to WiFi 5GHz settings. I also have found the workaround by using the Linksys IOS app. In the app I can change the settings. Only in case that band steering is switched off, it is not possible to switch it on with the app. I have to reload my settings backup in this case.
Please let me know if there is a solution for this. I think that it is fair to expect that this flagship router can be configured by using Smart WiFi whenever I want, without several tricks that do the thing.
