Hi Hamster244,
Ensure there is no interference devices nearby and much obstacles where devices have better line of sight to the AP. If it persist, try initial firmware followed by reset and reconfiguration.

Hey jvasanth1984 thanks a lot for the fast reply,
Just for some more info, the AP is plugged into the living room and it is roughly 5 feet from all the devices that need to connect to it and there is nothing in the way
What sort of interference devices would cause an issue if they were nearby the AP?
The 2.4 and the 5 Ghz bands disconnect at the same time for roughly 10 seconds every 30-60 minutes,
Finally how do i select the initial firmware? would that be restore to factory settings under the 'other' section on MyWifiExt?
Thanks
