Goodwe inverter disconnects regularly

Hi,
I have simple capsman wifi network. I used devices 951g-2hnd. Everything is working fine except Goodwe inverter is regularly disconnecting. I must reset him to connect again. When I use old wifi access point (maybe 7 years old noname) it is working without problems. I have found multiple forums that goodwe and mikrotik do not like each other but without any solution.
I installed latest firmware version to godwee and mikrotik devices.

Thanks for help

Never heard of Goodwe. How are the inverter and router connected to each other (example, USB, wired IP, WiFi, smoke signals)?

I know GoodWe very well and the WiFi module is not great. Instead of restarting the inverter or push the button on the stick I restart the cAP Lite that I use only for the inverter. And the network cable goes to a switch (POE).

I read the the status of the inverter through Node Red and if no response is received it will restart the cAP Lite.

Underneath the log and you see the restart for "Router one" at 18h56
