Archer AX6000 5Ghz stops working after app. 1 day

Hi,
I just bought a Archer AX6000 router. I'm having trouble with the 5 Ghz band. After a clean start up of the router the 5Ghz works fine. I have laptop, 2 phones and a tablet that can all connect to it. But after a day or so the connection is lost and I can't reconnect. The 5Ghz network is intermittend down. So, when scanning for networks sometimes the 5Ghz network is visible, but then dissapears again. This happens on all 4 devices, which make believe that the origin of the problem is with the router.
In a wifi analyzer app I see the same thing. The 5Ghz network is there, and then it isn't. Then it's back again and then it's gone again.
I updated the firmware to the latest available version, which is version 1.0.6.
Any ideas on how to solve this? Or should I return it?

I installed this Beta version ax6000v1_us-up-ver1-0-8-P9[20200318-rel14152]_beta_2020-03-18_16.03.53.zip and so far so good.
Let's see for how long...
Opps, I have to reply to my own posting- that version doesn't work either and the 5GHZ connection was lost again and can't be established without a restart.
This TP-LINK crap sucks!!!
Never again a TP-Link product! NEVER!!!

After being stable for about a week I'm back into the same issues with the beta firmware. Any further work being done on this by TP-Link?

Do you think they are not going to fix the errors?

@broxtor I found this forum post 3 days after pruchasing a AX6000 and experiencing the same issues.
I contacted TP Link and the fix for me was:
- Set 5G channel width to 40 or 80 MHz
- Fix channel (36/40 or 153)
Seems to have fixed it. at least for 2 days now.
Whenever I set the channel width back to 160 and channel on 'auto' the 5G shits itself.
Not bad for a $AUD500 router.......

@Kevin_Z I have a different kind of issue with the AX6000. In my case it is the UPnP. It seems to be working but it does not. I opened ticket [Request ID :##79099##] with the Spanish support, but they do not have a unit here to test. Would it be possible that this beta firmware also takes care of the UPnP issue?
The connection to my ISP (Movistar) is by PPPoE and when I manually open the required ports using Virtual Servers they work fine, but for me it is much more comfortable to use UPnP.
Another issue that I am having is not being able to acess IP 192.168.1.1 (the ISP router's IP) from a computer connected to the AX6000 (192.168.0.x). Normally I had no issues doing this when I used the M9 as a router.
Thank you very much in advance for your help.
This helped me too.
Thanks for nice explanation.
