When the XR is in AP mode DHCP is disabled and it will be like the devices are connected direct to the R2 and getting their IP from the R2. You should be able to access the XR using the IP the R2 has given it. I would suggest you disable Smart Connect on the XR and connect devices to 2.4/5GHz manually and that should resolve the disconnects.

Factory reset it, then when you go back to set the AP mode choose the option to give it a static IP instead, that should allow you to always access it after that.

ok so dont put it in ap? i already gave it a static ip on the r2 prior.
