Cinstant Canary device disconnects
I have 4 Canary devices (all within good range of the Orbi units) and they are constantly disconnecting from my Orbi RBR20 and satellites (RBS20 and RBS50). All of my other 2.4 devices stay connected. The disconnect time is usually about +/- 2 minutes. Is there a setting that I can make on the RBR20 to stop this madness? It happens multiple times a day, but hardly at night.

can you please describe the symptoms of this disconnection? i.e. how do you find out about it?
Each of the Canary devices will go offline at random times. Occasionally, 2 devices will be offline. After a period of about 1 or 2 minutes offline, the device will come back online. Nothing else is being done internet-wise during those times that would affect the connection. Other devices (laptops, etc) remain online during the times when the Canary devices drop off. The occurrences happen more in the late morning hours than later in the day. Rarely does it happen late at night. The morning starts with one or more devices dropping off about 7 to 8 AM. Thanks for the reply to the issue.
I am alerted by the Canary app that a device is offline
