[XT8] [CFG80211-ERROR] Error reoccurs near 9pm - Possible cause?

[stebrick]

Currently running 386.5_2-gnuton0 on Zenwifi XT8. No other stuff have been installed yet (amtm etc).

This error could happen randomly but I notice a pattern that it so far happened a lot near 9pm of my local time (not exactly, sometimes little earlier), causing a brief network disconnection for like 2-3 mins. The blue led of the node in my room was flashing blue when this happened and soon it turned back to white and normal again.

From the logs below it seems quite a lot happened within that 2 mins duration, but I've no idea what happened at all. It would be great if someone could explain what was happening, and how to solve this problem. Detailed logs file is also attached.

Please don't redact the MAC addresses, it makes trying to debug the problem much more difficult.

My first guess is that this could be an issue with the node rather than the router. How is the node connected to the router, by Ethernet?

Sorry, didn't know it would be a problem redacting those addresses. I edited accordingly so that they're not redacted anymore. Attached file also re-uploaded. No, the node is connected via wireless backhaul.

Thanks for the update. Can you post the syslog from the node please.
