Ok so I updated to .13 yet the issue still persists, at the same time in the evening, always around 6:25pm both the satellite and the router (in AP mode) light up in magenta. No chance to connect anymore, not wirelessly, not with wire.
- restarted router and satellite: same issue
- tried re-syncing: same issue.
- Switched satellites: same issue
- tried other ethernet cable: same issue
- tried different ethernet ports on both satellite and router: same issue
- factory reset the router: same issue
- keep satellite switched off after magenta: no issues!
- turn on satellite next morning: no issues! Until ~6:25pm
there's no devices conecting specifically around that time either. Also no airplanes flying over the house around that time.
I still need suggestions for solutions :(
Only time I had a similar issue was when I plugged my satellite into a smart plug, thinking it would be an easy way to cut power to it when I needed to. It didn't work out well since it started having issues for some reason the same day and I don't have it set up that way any longer. I do now have the router and the satellite both running of two UPS units and that seems to work great since it keeps my network going when power goes out.
- Weirdly enough, my satellite is also connected to a smart plug. Although I didn’t have any issues with it in the months before, I’ll gladly try and report if there’s a change. Thanks!
