I updated firmware on the AXE7800 to 3.0.0.4.388_25127-gc2e0008 a couple of days ago. I then started to find the wireless radios shutting off around midnight. I rebooted in the morning, and all started working again. This happened for the last 2 nights.
Today I just discovered, while reviewing my network's connections, that the DHCP range was no longer at my settings of x.50 - x.254 but were reset to x.2 - x.254. So, with that fixed I'm hoping it cured the Wi-Fi radios shutting down, perhaps when leases were expiring. I have a couple dozen or so devices with fixed IPs below x.50 so there were many collisions happening.

I'm assuming the FW update reset the DHCP settings.

any ideas?

So it's been a few days, and I've had no router problems. I'll say that my issue was the resetting of DHCP range after firmware update. Beware.
