I can't figure this out for the life of me. I am new to DDWRT. I have most devices setup with static DHCP. I have two ecobee thermostats and 5 Google home speakers. They are all set with IP reservation's. They all seem to lose connection to the wifi. Its not the signal. I have good coverage around the house. The devices that drop off are at varying distance from the router. Some are very close. As soon as I power cycle the router everything comes back online ans will usually stay online for a day or two. Can someone please give me some tips and tricks for determining what or where I need to look to figure out what is happening?

The general questions forum is not the preferred place for asking for router help.

See the forum guidelines with helpful pointers about how to research your router, where and what firmware to download, where and how to post and many other helpful tips:

If you let us know the router model and build number I will transfer this thread to the appropriate forum Smile
