Hello, I have about 20+ M5 smart switches at home and the problem is that most of these devices randomly disconnect from time to time. The light flashes, and I can’t reconnect using the ewelink app. When I try to I get the following message every time. ![Screenshot_20230429_121535_eWeLink](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/ewelinkforum/original/2X/b/b8d5207a3931bb994d4265d54c1c7aaa9ed72d55.jpeg) I have checked many times that the wifi is ok and also the number of connected devices is not an issue. The only workaround I have found so far is to unmount the device and mount it again manually. Is there any permanent solution? ---

Unfortunately, I have a same problem. I have mixed the old and new Sonoff sensors all around the house, but only the new type sensors/switches with the LCD display, disconnects from the wifi. The rest of them still online. Very annoying ---

I have the same issue with wall switches. They work for a while then disconnect. For me the WiFi light is solid blue. The nearest mesh WiFi access point is only a couple of metres away.
