Experiencing the same thing...

Looks like there's an onDateSelect() function where a check is done to trigger hideOverlay(). In the case of the range, the hideOnDateTimeSelect property is not checked and hideOverlay is called whenever the second value is entered. This has not been resolved in the current versions.

When the p-calendar is set to "range" hideOnDateTimeSelect = false is simply ignored, causing the calendar to be closed when clicking on the second date.

In version 17.16 the problem still persists.
