What are your hardware specifications ?!

And are you 100% sure it's not the Ubiquiti Wireless Bridge having issues for whatever reason ?!

Are you sure you're losing internet access, and it's not just DNS failing?

I ask because I noticed that after 5 to 8 days, and it ended up being Unbound needing to be restarted.  Which btw, didn't work properly once Unbound was in a bad state.  So I set up a cron job to restart Unbound every 5 days or so.

Just a thought....hope it helps.
