Recently got an Aqara Hub 2 Pro, mainly because it plays nicely with Homekit.

 

Anyway, without fail every night at approximately 8:40pm it loses connection with my wifi, then it comes back, then it loses it...... This can happen up to half a dozen times and goes on for 30-60 minutes. After that it is fine again.

 

I'm assuming something is happening once a day around that time with either the camera, or my router which is an Orbi.

 

Any thoughts?

Have seen the same with Aqara. Pretty sure the timing lines up with DHCP lease renewal. Don't think the WiFi connection dropped, but it would lose it's IP address while doing the DHCP renewal dance.

Ok makes sense thanks, might just be easiest to mute disconnection alerts around that time then.

Make the DHCP lease time longer to delay it, or restart the device at a time when you don't care about the alerts -  that should change the daily time of when it happens.

 

Presume you've checked for new firmware, but didn't fix it in my case.
