I hope you mean the “homey is offline” message, instead of Homey switching on off?  
The offline message is a long time bug, report it to support please.

When it’s real connection issues:

> [@Homey Pro doesn’t connect to 5 GHz WiFi 5 (Ubiquiti)](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-pro-doesn-t-connect-to-5-ghz-wifi-5-ubiquiti/97983/10):
>
> just buy the ethernet dongle (yeah finally there’s ethernet available for Homey).  
> Try to use 2.4GHz wifi only. I don’t think the speed advantage of 5GHz wifi is needed at all.  
> And after connecting, force Homey to use only one of the AP’s, by band steering, MAC filtering or transmit power settings  
> Also reserve an IP address for Homey @ DHCP server.
