WAX610Y  INSIGHT ALERT: DEVICE OFFLINE-Channel Utilization went high ch1/Reboot reason: Crash

We just upgraded / replaced Orbi to these business WAX610 APs.  We have NETGEAR WAX610 (qty4) and WAX610Y  (qty 1) WiFi 6 Access Points at this location. This issue seems to have happend on the outdoor unit after the upgrade to  FW 9.1.0.16 (latest) and I didn't have these notifications for the few days this AP was operational before the FW new release. The four indoor WAX610 same FW do not have this issue or random rebooting.

 

Loses connection to insight, then regains connection two minutes later, without intervention.   INSIGHT ALERT: DEVICE OFFLINE

ERROR  This happens 3x a day.

 

lost communication with the NETGEAR Insight cloud service

There may be a temporary network or power outage. Make sure that your device(s) are powered on and connected to the Internet through your ISP. If they are powered on and can reach the Internet, restart the device(s).
