you may have same problem as me. i just bought a new one to remove the possibility of any hardware issue on any machine i have. oddly while i cannot go to the router via 192.168.1.1, everything is connecting accordingly.
That's why i spent hours (3 hrs at one point) troubleshooting this with mulitple restarts of ISP modem & router. And doing a new "setup" via mobile app before 30-30-30 reset and one 15 sec reset push also.
Very disappointed it only lasted 2 yrs. But it is what it is and I'm hoping the replacemeent lasts longer since I have no AX devices to leverage a new router for and start over in a sense.

Yea, it's disappointing for sure. I just bought mine in January of 2020. It worked great until a couple days ago.
