Hmm, sounds like something is not configured right or something in your environment is a possible cause. Very odd.
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
And you did disable AX mode on the RBR?

It is odd. There are very few configuration options in the AX compared to the Pro, and what there are are the same as they were configured in the Pro. And nothing changed in the clients that would cause this (there was literally a 10 minute break between connecting to the Pro and connecting with the AX, and it affects all devices not just some. The newest firmware did seem to affect the amount of time the AX would remain stable (in a positive manner), but everything eventually still goes to hell within a day. With the unit I RMA'd, I actually had to leave it for several weeks while travelling and put the router on a timer that would reboot it every day. That helped 90% of the time (sometimes everything would crap out before the reboot). Can do the same here but don't want a kludge "fix" to what is obviously just an issue with the router.
