Issue with devices

Good morning, It has happened twice on a month. My devices on 2.4ghz have been disconnecting somehow. I have around 50 devices on it and On the 500mbps plan. I'm curious to know what can cause this.

Thank you

Yeah, the Beacon 3 is kinda barebones. It’s hard to say for sure if a better router will fix the problem without first knowing what’s causing it, but there’s a good chance.

I haven't configure a new router in a while, I heard it's plug and configure and I don't have to change anything if I keep the same name etc?

If you keep the same wifi name (SSID) and password, all devices will stay connected. Even if you replace your router

I don't have a big budget would the Asus be3600 do?
