How to see the static IP problem (seems to require a late model iPad Pro 2024 or iPhone 15 Pro):
On the device go to Settings - tap Wifi - tap the your SSID name -> where it shows your connection WiFi, tap the 'i' to the right - scroll down to the section "Configure ipv4 address" - it shows Automatic. Tap automatic. there, tap Manual so the check mark goes to manual. Then a Manual IP address block appears, type an IP, Subnet, and router address, tap save. Once you do, WiFi connection is gone,. If you then go back in and set it to Automatic, WiFi will connect again.
My DHCP block is 192.168.1.2 -> .150, I had these at .156 and .155
Anyone with the latest model iPhone or iPad, can you try this?

So static IP iphone 12 pro max iOS 17.5.1 doesn't exhibit this issue on a 770 series. I don't have my 970 series online at the moment.
I recommend opening up a support ticket with NG support to let them know what your seeing.
I've asked around to see if others can check this as well on there 970 series.
