Wifi dropped again at midnight on the node which meant the backhaul 5ghz also dropped. Might have to go back. I have spotted another RT-AC68U but this one is unused and in the original box so have struck a deal with the owner. Should arrive next week.

So the Dining room RT-AC68U is going back for refund as it is unable to maintain a wifi connection. Wifi switched off after 20 hours then came back on but no good for streaming. The other (bedroom) is now in the dining room and seems rock solid so I will just use the 2 in a mesh system. Pretty much whole house coverage which is what I was aiming for.

Now trying Merlin Custom firmware 386.2 on both mesh routers. Lots of tools to play with and seems stable after a couple of hours uptime.
