One complication of my WiFi setup is that I have an old hAP ac lite (legacy wireless) that advertises the same network my MBP is connected to. But it's behind brick wall and the signal strength is 20db worse. Another complication is that I use DFS channels but there is nothing in the logs to show conflicts.
Curios thing is that /interface/wifi/registration-table shows that uptime of all clients connected to the affected network was reset. Uptime of clients of other networks remains unaffected.
On MBP, besides artifacts in the GFN app, the UI shows loss of WiFi connection and /var/log/wifi.log has records to the same avail.
