Ex8000 drops randomly. Connected to c7500.
As stated by many others over the years. This extender drops intermittently. It can stay connected for a couple days then all of a sudden just stops connecting to the internet. My ex8000 is connect...
Yes it’s a static IP. Just realized that I never setup access points with dhcp addresses so that I can remember what up address to go to to administer the device.
Personally, wish these had better logs to determine what happened around the time of the internet drop.

And to further add. When the r7000 used to drop, the main router used to also be a r7000. It used to drive me crazy so I ended up swapping out the main router with a c7500 and the access point with a ex8000 and now the same exact issue with the access point dropping the internet connection. It’s unbelievable. Spent all that money to get the same issue.
It could be the ISP lease time expiring and your devices not aquiring a new lease.
That scheduled reboot might be beneficial. Sadly its not built into the device.
