No, the route cache bug takes a few weeks to manifest, and only on
routers running OSPF, which yours isn't.

The only non-transient error I can think of that would match what you
describe is an IP address issue. When your modem associates with the
sector, it is assigned an IP address on the wireless interface by
DHCP. Depending on how you're connecting to the modem, maybe the IP
address you were connected to was removed.

I'd recommend connecting via MAC address to avoid this type of thing.
To do that, you click on the three dots in the Winbox connection
dialog. It will bring up a window that lists all the Mikrotik devices
found on the local network. There will be multiple columns, including
MAC address and IP address. If you click the MAC address, it will
auto-fill the connection dialog with the MAC address and connect via
layer 2.

What is your wireless MAC address? I'll watch for it in the sector logs.
