Power Interruption and 2.4GHz stops working
Every time I have a power interruption, the 2.4GHz on my XR1000v2 quits working. The 5GHz works fine though. The last time this happened, I talked with technical support on the phone and the only way we got it working again was doing a factory reset. I am tired of having to do a factory reset every time a power interruption occurs. It is time consuming getting everything reset and all my devices reconnected.
Is there another way to get the 2.4GHz working again?
Thank you.
P.S. I have requested they replace the device.

Just curious. Does the same thing happen when the router is deliberately rebooted using the web interface?
Make all your changes and then reboot the router from the interface, this acts as a hard save and so should then in theory prevent it happening when power is lost
