So I've built a rather large network at this point, and I'm not at home so I can't take screenshots, but I'll try to describe.
I have a large ME controller setup in my primary base, P2P tunnels leading to storage, autocrafting and crafting cpus.
The first and second quantum bridges I setup everything worked fine and channels established immediately. But as I added more to the network, channels started acting sketchy and would not establish without effectively shutting down my entire ME network and restarting.
As an example, in my void dimension I have a quantum network bridge exporting liquids to bedrockium drums for gas creation and importing from a gas tank back to the system. These are all working fine. When I go to add another export /import bus, they show as "Device missing channel" and sometimes still function, but oftentimes not until I reset the network, then they're fine as well.
The quantum network bridges are connected via dense cable directly to my me controllers in the overworld so they're not hooked up via P2P but everything after the quantum bridge is.
Even if I hook something directly to the bridge, it has the same problem, so I think the P2P tunnels aren't really the issue.
Total channels used by all 4 of my bridges is about 22 or so (so 22 P2P tunnels on the other side).
I have each bridge independently powered by a tesseract connected to a T7 draconic core being fed by mekanism fusion, so I don't think power is an issue either. My main controller has a huge bank of dense energy as well (put in place to try to troubleshoot this nonsense).
Each P2P tunnel is independently connected to the controller on the originating side with a colored glass cable attached to a different face on the same controller, no controller has more than 1 P2P tunnel attached.
I have seen videos, I can't imagine I'm even close to as advanced as the majority of youtubers out there, so I'm thinking I'm missing something I just can't figure out what...
Any ideas would be much appreciated!
TL;DR: Large ME network, new channels not connecting until ME is restarted.
I've had a similar problem, where my system was acting .. unreliably .. for lack of a better word. Random parts of the system would dc, auto crafting not working etc. I think I solved it by adding an energy buffer to my me controller. A few of the dense cells and it worked as normal again. Don't know if it will solve it for you, but it worked for my system.
9 times out of 10, you really are just missing a channel. Got some screenies?

I really need some assistance, I'm playing with AE2 and Modern Industrialization together, and i have a slight problem... which is, 2 of my import buses on one of the machines are apparently missing a channel.
I have 1 ME Controller connected on 3 different sides to my ME Drive, MI basic machines and MI advanced machines. The thing is, on the controller side that the channels are missing, there are not more than 32 channels linked (I'm using dense smart cables). Is it not supposed to support 32 channels on each side of the controller? Or am i misunderstanding something?
Btw there are no entangled cables, all are separated and of different colors.
Appreciate the help.
