EX7000, loss 5Ghz SSID / all connected devices

Been using my EX7000 as an accesspoint, both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz for clients.

The EX7000 is connected with wire.

 

Once a week or every second week at least, all clients connected to 5Ghz will loose the connection and the SSID is not visible any more.

Only a restart solves the problem, also seen the 2.4Ghz drop all connections and SSID gone, once but never again.

 

Using two different SSID, one for 2.4 and one for 5ghz, so I know which one that disappears.

 

As I have it connected to the wired network as well, I can log in and do a restart.

 

Currently at: Firmware Version V1.0.0.38_1.0.91

 

Any suggestions?.. Did notice that the R7000 had the same problem when I searched the forum, but no luck with a workaround/fix.

    Hello mrund

     

    I would try to change the wireless channel? also I would try a factory reset on the EX7000 see if that helps with the issue.
