Im not sure, just know what i was told. Im 100% its the apex dropping over considering the whole house is running off wifi. Any ideas on this? Wires connection isnt possible as the router gets very poor signal over by the tank.
Yeah i actually ended up getting a $10 wifi outlet off amazon and the apex eb832 is plugged into it. Its obviously not a wifi issue cause everything in the house works 24/7. When i get the alert that it’s disconnected i just power cycle it with the wifi plug app. Takes 10 seconds and its back online. I just wish the trident wouldnt pull a water sample everytime it happens cause its a 3g pico and lossing that little bit of salt water and replacing it with RO makes a difference lol before you ask no i dont use all this apex gear just for a 3g tank. I seriously downgraded tanks and it was either use the $3k gear or put it in the closet. Going in the closet was not an option.
My DHCP is set for 100-255 and Apex is static at 75. Nothing else near that address. Used Netspot to find an unused channel to set router to and Apex still disconnected from Fusion at least once a day. Router still saw it but would not talk to Fusion. Almost always dropped at night.
Only had mine for less than a month so can't speak to anything prior but would be curious if there was an update about that time. Us programmers have a habit of improving things until they don't work anymore.
What channel is the 2.4 set to? If it's not 1, 6 , or 9 that could be your issue.My DHCP is set for 100-255 and Apex is static at 75. Nothing else near that address.

Could you elaborate a bit? Im not a tech guy but i can get inside the router and get it done. Its just these terms tell me nothing you know?
In my router it's under the LAN setup tab under advanced setup. There is a field called address reservation where you would enter the static ip you have set up for the apex. That prevents the router from being able to assign that address to any other device for any reason. I also do this for any smart home device like wifi lights and such to ensure they always connect correctly after a power outage.
Is set to 8...3 other routers in the area are set to 1, 5 of them are set to 6, 2 set to 9, and 3 set to 11. 8 is in the middle with the least interference in this area.
Okay yeah ive already done that, didnt really help unfortunately.
You only ever want 1 6 or 9. The reason being is that setting to something like 8 will get interference from both 9 and 6 due to the bandwidth of the signal (bandwidth is 3 channels wide)
I will try this but i feel like its already in 1 but ill look again.
