WN2500RP stops broadcasting 5GHz

I have a WN2500RP set up to broadcast on 2.4 and 5. Everything seems to work great and my various devices connect well to it on either or both bands.

The problem is that occasionally, about once per day, the 5G stops working. The 5G SSID disappears from all WAP lists. I'm able to connect to it using 2.4 on the 2.4 SSID, but the only way to get 5G back is to unplug the router and plug it back in. Simply turning it off and back on doesn't fix it.

Any ideas? This is unacceptable.

(using firmware V1.0.0.30_1.0.58)

Not much you can do other than default all settings reload FW , replace if still a problem.
