For whatever reason, the 2.4GHz network crashed on me this evening. I was streaming a video on my local network (Computer with Plex to Smart TV), and when I went to go to the next video, the Smart TV couldn't connect to the Wifi. Sure enough my phone verified that my 2.4GHz network couldn't be found, but the 5 GHz network was still up (as was hardwired).

A logread doesn't show anything useful, I don't think. Here is the last half hour (approx)...

It appears that at approx 20:50:06 is when the 2.4 GHz crashed, as that is when my phone switched to the 5 GHz network.

Here is some other info as of right now, if it is useful...

Mmmm nothing should have changed for 2.4.

Keep an eye on it. If you can get a closer logread possibly helpful. Also potentially a dmesg as well.

Will do. I don’t think the logread will show anything other than what was there, but I'll try a dmesg too

I have narrowed this down a little. The tor plugin is stable when I use the default "Tor Data Drive: RAM Disk." but enters a boot loop when I use "Tor Data Drive: /dev/sda2".

Sigh! So now I cannot replicate the instability

And am starting to wonder again about those weird packets captured in my original post
