I have been battling a weird problem recently, I have this problem occurring on two (2) separate networks, one with 2 nodes and the other with 3 nodes. What happens is the network is fine and all of a sudden the clients can not reach the Internet, This what I have observed. on both Openwrt 19.07, 18.07. A reboot of the gateway corrects the problem.

My first guess is that the underlying interfaces (mesh0) stopped to transport unicast frames. Did you check this by setting an IP on mesh0 and ping between these devices using the IPv4 ping?
