All this tweaking of otherwise standard WiFi setups, just so Twine can connect, suggests significant weakness in Twine's firmware / hardware. My own Twine connects easily maybe 50 percent of the time. If I leave it unattended (with USB power connect…
@Gerry M, it seems to me that depending on Twine for any kind of vital signal (like a flooded basement) is unwise. Twine is an experimentation toy, little more, at least in its current state of development.
Comparing this to my Android devices, for instance, they are able to switch between channels, provided the SSIDs are same across all APs. I do sometimes have to manually switch them via an app, but generally they seem to do it for themselves.
@David Albert, I'm no expert but I believe WiFi extenders (with the same SSID) ideally operate on different channels (to avoid interference). I believe channels are normally numbered 1 thru 12 (or 14, in Europe), so I'm not sure what channel 149 is …
@David Albert, when I used the default twinesetup.com connect procedure, the dropdown list of available networks listed THREE of the same name, one for each of my access points. In the static IP setup procedure, the channels are listed as well.

I have three access points in my house, each with the same SSID but different channels (1, 7 and 12). Looking at the Twine static IP setup procedure, I see each channel as a separate network. Not good. Twine should see these channels as a single net…
