Normally, there are ~57 clients. Right now, only ~35 are reconfigured to work on the changed SSID.
It looks like a problem with the Nest router's DHCP server intermittently not sending OFFER packets in response to valid DISCOVERY broadcasts because the multitude of devices (Amazon Echo Show 8, iPad Pro 10.5", Mac mini, iRobot Braava) works fine everywhere else all of the time.
(There's no rogue DHCP servers on any clients.)
I've done the jiggle-the-cord, hard reset, and disable some points rain dancing already. Replacing them, as I've been waiting for over a week for higher-tier support to approve, is unlikely to fix this if it's a software issue common to the product line.
What I need is a fix ASAP or a full refund on product without fitness for a particular purpose so I can purchase a mesh that works properly.
Right now, they're paperweights.
