Quest 2 keeps disconnecting from WIFI

Quest 2 keeps dropping Wifi
It's been a couple of weeks and HOURS of google searching and experimenting and it persist.
I haven't timed it but it happens consistently every 5 minutes or so. Just long enough for me to load a game and join a server.

Steps I have tried:
Separate the 2.4ghz and 5ghz into different SSIDs
Restart the Wifi
Restart the Quest
Enable the Experimental feature option Disable Wifi refresh in the settings.
Verbally degrading the hardware and threatening to replace it
Creating a Voodoo doll of Zuckerberg with hair clippings bought off ebay
Wringing my hands in desperate anguish and screaming into the void.

I have an ATT fiber router that's a foot away in the same room with clear line of sight.
I have tried using different bands, 40/80/126

Please help. It's useless like this.

    I have found a solution!

    I had to turn off wifi 6 on my router (Asus RT-AX56U). There is a problem with connection only in AX (Wifi6) mode.

    My quest 2 has been telling me that the wifi is saved but never connected and I have tried

    Disconnecting and reconnecting internet from the meta quest 2/router 

    Factory reset

    Forgetting network

    Restarting meta quest 2/router

    Almost anything you can think of and now I can't even set the quest 2 up anymore because it needs that internet but it will only say saved and will not connect at all anything that I could try to fix this problem or could I use a file to fix I have no computer to use either
