Going nuts here and hope the wizards of the forums have some insight..
Was running asus router for a while and among many other problems, i had spotty connectivity with the Omni Panel that primarily was a problem working in PC Access when uploading changes to the panel. I upgraded to EERO mesh router, which solved for all of my wifi issues and mostly solved for my connectivity issues with Omni, meaning that for Home Assistant and Snaplink it was spot on connections, and when uploading files from withing PC Access, i still sometimes lost connectivity but mostly it was fine.
Recently, my HA and Snaplink connectivity got spotty and finally gave out completely. My panel is showing "Offline" from within the router and there is nothing i can do to get it back on-line. Sometimes resetting the router will bring it back for a minute or two and then go offline...the Eero app also tells me "last time online" and from that data point it seems that it comes back online periodically for a minute or two now and then...
Question: Is this a hardware issues i.e. the panel connection port (i already swapped patch cords to rule that out) or something else on the panel is degrading or is this a software issue meaning the the dinosaur tech that the panel is based on can't play nice with current wifi routers... Difference is a) if its a software issue is there a fix and b) if it a hardware issue i can buy a new board and do an even swap...
Otherwise my only option is to swap out to and Elk panel which means i need to start messing with keypads already installed all over my house (the elk pads don't match the dimensions of the HAI...royal pain in the .......)
