WiFi device keeps dropping out (R7800)

I'm running OpenWRT on a NetGear R7800 and everything seems to be working fine except that one of my WiFi devices keeps dropping out and refuse to come back online unless i disable/enable the wifi network. All other devices work fine, and the problematic device worked fine on other networks.

Running OpenWrt 21.02.0-rc4 r16256-2d5ee43dc6 / LuCI openwrt-21.02 branch git-21.231.26241-422c175.

Any idea what might be the issue?

Hi first thing is that you could update to latest build of OpenWrt. If it still is dropping out then file a bug here:
https://bugs.openwrt.org/
Pleas let us know what device is not playing ball for you.
The upgrade file for the netgear_r7800 is here:
