Looses connection

Hi, I have the EX6200 working in FastLane mode where it connects via 5Ghz to my router (AirPort Extreme last generation) and then using wires I connect some other stuff to it. Well, all this works...

I have the same issue with the EX6200 losing connection. It is extending an R7000 Nighthawk in Fastlane mode. It is connecting to the R7000 at 5Ghz and servicing 2.4Ghz clients. Every few days all clients lose connection and disappear from the R7000's active wireless client list. However the EX6200 does stay connected to the R7000 as a 5Ghz client, it just does not accept connections from the 2.4Ghz clients anymore. The only way so far that I have found to resolve this is to hard boot the EX6200 by powering it off then on via the physical power button. This is only temporary as the EX6200 will have the same issue after a few days again.

Has anyone discovered a resolution to this issue? Any new firmware available to resolve the problem?

Thanks
