Firmware is 1.0.0.58_1.0.44, I am using auto on 2.4ghz band and switched to 48 on 5ghz was 44 before. The only thing I have hooked up lan is my lutron hub. Once the xbox disconnected I did not try to log into the router, just made a sad face and went to bed. Was playing some elden ring so the frustration was high :). I live on a corner lot, there is me and 1 neighbor, so there should not be much interference. I know the nest cam constantly goes off line because I get a notification when it is offline for 10 minutes, it is really odd, I made the cam use 5ghz because it said 2.4 was not able to handle the bandwidth and 720p video..... Not even using 4k or 1080p......... Sorry forgot to add the modem is behind lock and key from my ISP, if the issue keeps up I will break it open and get a definitive answer, that was not changed when they upgraded the speed.
