On my 2866Vac, if I set Channel to Auto, neither my iPhone 13 not my 2024 model iPad can connect.
They try to connect, but never succeed (the spinning wheel icon spins indefinitely).
BUT if I Disable Wireless LAN, pause, Enable it and on the same Channel that AUTO was using, both devices connect within a second.
[loop]
If I disable again, set to Auto, neither device can connect.
This is reproducable 100%.

At first I thought it must be DFS-related, but the same failure occurs even in Auto selects an A-Lower channel.

Any thoughts or siggestions appreciated (except for Don't use Auto, which i already thought of!).
