XR500 2.4G disabled after schedule wakeup

I setup to use separated SSID for the 2.4G and 5G network. I scheduled to turn on/off the WIFI daily.  However, I found the 2.4G can't be wakeup sometimes, can't reenable through the control interface and must reboot.

  • When this happens do you see the 2.4GHz SSID available on your devices or does it just not appear? So disabling the radio then enabling the radio in Advanced Wireless settings does nothing?

        NO, the SSID disappered.

        This method not work too.  Even tried to enable the Guest WIFI of the 2.4G, but still failed to wake it up.  The logs showed the actions were performed...
