SRR60 - random Wi-Fi drops
I have an SRR60 with four active SSID's and about 75 devices connected. (A lot of home automation)
A couple times a day, the Wi-Fi seems to shut off. Multiple devices and PC's in the house report no Wi-Fi connection. This occurs on all the SSID's 5 and 2.5 at the same time. About a minute or two later everything restores.
I'm on the latest/last firmware. 2.7.3.100.
The uptime on the debug page is accurate. The unit is not rebooting.
No errors or bad signals on the cable modem. (bridged and no Wi-Fi)
Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.

Are the devices spread out over all 4 ssid's? Or are you using a Main, IoT, Guest, Random (?)?
Just curious how many are getting loaded onto the 2.4ghz ssid.
Does it matter what band or do all bands drop?
Not using the guest network but I have all the home automation on the iot. Probably 20-30 2.4 ghz devices.
When it happens, all bands go out.
Frequent Wi-Fi drops on your SRR60 could be due to overload or interference try reducing connected devices or changing channels.For more help,
Thanks, I found a spec on-line that said it was good for 40 connections, I have 75.
It's probably time to upgrade.
