Network connection though TP-LINK RE650 REPEATER

I have been using Q4OS Centaurus untill now with no network problems. I just installed GEMINI and I have a curious problem with the network connection.
I live in a house with 2 floors. I have a Synology router, a repeater also Synology and another one a TP-LINK RE650 which is the one to which I connect the PC.

With CENTAURUS everything is ok, but with GEMINI I can't get it to connect to the TP-LINK, the networks appear, but it is not possible to connect to them, althrough it is possible to connect to the weak signal of a Synology repeater, on the floor below. Or a mobile access point with no issues

I have tried with a laptop and the same thing happens.
I have also tried with other distributions and it seems to be the same. If it is with Kernel 4.19 everything is ok, but, with 5.10 or 5.15 it is not possible. Other devices, like mobiles,laptop with W10,  connect without any problem.

Can you help me?
Thanks.

Re: Network connection though TP-LINK RE650 REPEATER

Well, I'm not a linux expert.
The only solutions I've found are to revert to a previous version (with hardware compatibility problems), or to move to a current one that doesn't have this issue.I have found a couple: Mageia and Opensuse.
Time to change,...
