RBR50 Keeps losing Wifi connected internet (Wired devices fine)
I have an RBR50 with firmware : V2.1.4.16 . Wifi connected devices lose interent, yet at the same time hardwired devices are just fine. The only solution so far is to reboot the router. Any help is...

Hi.. So keep in mind that the devices are not losing connection to the router (or satellites) they just no longer can access the internet. The wired devices are doing just fine. This seems to be happening most after the most recent update to firmware. So .. to answer your questions.
Firmware 2.2.4.16
The modem really isn't it, but its ARRIS SB8200
My home is really big, but the devices are all on one floor and about 20-30 feet straight line distance apart. The devices themselves stay connected, so i am sure this is not the issue
I was using auto on 2.4 and just changed it to 11
5GHz is set to 48
No wifi neighbors close
I only have a checkbox option next to enable 20/40 MHz Coherence and it is not checked currently
Daisy Chaining is checked (enabled)
MMIIO, Fast Rpaming, Implicit Beamforming are all Enabled.
IPv6 is Disabled
