    Yesterday I changed SSID of the 5ghz WiFi. This seems to have cured the lost connection problem. The connection has not been lost for 24hrs. When the 5ghz was on the same SSID, the motion sensor lost connection almost immediately that 5ghz WiFi was turned on.

    Sensor has been ok and not losing connection for 3 days. Today I re enabled 5ghz WiFi. Sensor lost connection almost immediately. Turned off 5ghz, pushed button on sensor. All good again. Next I will try moving 5ghz WiFi to a different SSID. It could be the sensor sees the 5ghz WiFi on the same SSID and password and tries to use it.

    For info, sensor is already on reserved IP.

    I have 2 of these motion sensors. The first one seems ok, but the 2nd one loses connection as described . I tried turning off the 5ghz WiFi on my router, which was the same ssid and password. So far, after 2 days this seems to have cured the WiFi disconnect problem. I am wandering if I should split the 5ghz and away and give it a separate ssid and password.
