I've been battling the wifi disconnect issues that seem to be affecting lots of hydros owners. My first wifi router was dual band so got a dedicated 2.4ghz router, got things connected, including replacing wifi strips.

When I encountered further disconnects I dug a bit and found out the router was sold as 2.4ghz but was actually dual band... so I returned it and finally sourced an actual single-band router. Got the collective attached to the new router, but now I'm unable to get either of the 2 wifi strips connected. They time out on pairing.

I've restarted the collective, strips, etc. many times. Is there a specific set of steps (including time to wait after rebooting) that I can follow? I really don't want to have to throw in the towel on these.
 
I would wait about 2-3 minutes after pairing or unsuccessful pairing before reboot and then wait another 2-3 minutes after reboot before pairing again. You do not have to reboot the whole collective just your current wifi master.
