**Hello everybody **
I have a Wi-Fi environment with 6 identically configured access points. One of these access points regularly experiences problems where the 5G (radio1) radio network fails -after some time running-. In LUCI, the network is then displayed as "disabled". This particular access point is installed in a very high-traffic area. I suspect that a high number of clients is causing this issue. All access points are configured as "dumb-AP" and have minimal CPU usage. I use usteer for band-steering, but the problem persists even with DAWN. I have also swapped the access points and the power supply, so it cannot be the device itself. Does anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this?
