That is most unfortunate as you have been working well for nearly 3 weeks.
if you made no changes and still with same ISP, then maybe next time try tweaking the below to see if this helps.
- set 2.4GHz bandwidth to 20MHz
- fix control channels on 2.4GHz bands to 1, 6, or 11.
- disable Airtime Fairness & Beamforming (for testing)
I did read a while ago, setting ‘AMPDU RTS’ to enable helps with crowded 2.4GHz channel and also check ‘WMM APSD’ as this is a power saving option mainly for mobile devices and saving battery power, if its only mobile devices disappearing from list, could be this ?
Logs would be good if problem re-appears.

September 7, 2025 at 12:57 am #39420I had a strange glitch the other day where the node wireless backhaul was up and the switch was working, but the SSID dropped offline and the node showed offline in the Asus app until it was rebooted, otherwise all has been good with the latest update.
I’ve recently moved my AP mode XT8’s from behind my MikroTik RB5009 to a Ubquiti Cloud Gateway Fiber, which is very nicely specced, and so far, I’m very impressed with it.
I’m planning on moving to a full Ubiquiti WiFi7 setup with a couple of APs, but until this is completed, the XT8’s, which are now 5+ years old, are working well and I’m impressed that Asus is still supporting them.
