Thank you, Paul, I read through that long thread yesterday evening and come to my conclusion. I upgraded to a WiFi 6 router recently, but possibly a firmware update has changed its behaviour two weeks ago. Suspects are also a WiFi power switch located just next to the radio. I realised the radio disconnecting right when I reconnected that switch. I will definitely go for a WiFi bridge. Patching the radio from my point of view isn't necessarily, also because it's stationery and doesn't need to ever move. I'm a little surprised that replacing the old Wi-Fi card in the radio with a recent one isn't even discussed there. I always replaced those in my aging laptops, to lift them to the latest Wi-Fi standard. But maybe it's just not possible, cause of hardware or driver issues. Is there a forum discussing hardware issues, how to open and maintain the radio electronics?
