I have a pair of ZenWiFi Pro ET12 routers where one is working as the router with an Ethernet connection to the Internet and the other one, acting as a node. Recently, I've been having problems making changes I do to the configuration stick.
For instance, when trying to rename a device on the network, after changing the name of the device via the General-AIMesh menu and pressing the Apply button, the name immediately reverts back to the original name. I've also seen the same thing when trying to add/remove devices to/from the WiFi Blacklist and same thing for adding and removing devices to/from the Manually Assigned IP around the DHCP list. Same thing regardless if I'm using the web interface via my Windows 11 PC or the Android app.
I've managed to make it work a couple of times by performing a System Reboot. On a few occasions though when doing a system reboot, I ended up with the router being in 'Ready to be setup' mode where it for whatever reason lost the name of the WiFi and the password. Where I had to put these in again in order for devices being able to reconnect.
Back in 2022 when I bought the pair of routers, I never saw any of these issues. So not really sure what happened and why. Both devices are on firmware version 3.0.0.4.388_24610-gd86af63.
Thinking if doing a complete factory reset would solve the issue or do you guys have any other ideas?
It's truly annoying because part from this, this AIMesh setup with one device working as a router and the other one as a node works really well in providing great WiFi speeds for all devices connected.
With many thanks in advance for your advice and help!

A factory reset would be my next step with that kind of issue....

Was hoping for a less cumbersome way forward but will give it a go when I find the time for it 👍

I actually saw your post before but held back my response hoping someone else or a moderator had another option to try first. Sigh...

No big ding really because I haven't done that much configuration but I need to time it because I rely on the WiFi for work.
