XR1000 2.4 Stops working
I bought an XR1000 a couple of years ago and haven't had any issues until recently. For about the last two months, the 2.4 band will stop working and nothing can connect to it. Rebooting the router...

What happens if you disable AX mode on 2.4Ghz?
How many devices do you have on the 2.4Ghz network?
Do you need TPIK enabled on 2.4ghz?
Try channel 1 or 11 on 2.4Ghz

Sorry it took so long. It is currently happening. I haven't rebooted yet. My 2.4 is down. 5 works as well as wired.
Log is attached as pdf, as it well exceeds the limit.

I'm not sure what happens when AX is disabled. I haven't done that yet because it makes me disable it for both.
Right now I have 22 devices on the 2.4.
I don't believe I need TPIK, but haven't changed that yet.
I switched to channel 1 after reading your post.
Changing the channel caused a reboot and now things are working. It usually takes a day or so for the problem to come back.
I'm going to start with the channel change first. Process of elimination.

Having that many devices on 2.4Gb alone could be causing problem.
Hopefully changing channels helps.
