RBR50 Wifi Keeps Dropping

My RBR50 has been stable for the past 2 years. 2 months back it started acting up. I have updated the firmware. LAN connectivity is stable and I am able to access orbi login. RBR50 lights are stable. Only problem is all devices connected through wifi keep dropping connections every 30 seconds or so. It looks like the wifi module or whatever is acting up and restarting. To isolate the problem, I have disconnected the router from modem and satellites. Still having wifi issues. Very much inclined to throw it away after trying all possible solutions on these forums and snbforums but can't afford a new setup. Therefore, need to fix my router wifi issue.

I have changed the power adopter but that didn't solved the problem.

I have attached my router settings for clarity.

    The webui also shows wifi getting off and turning on by itself again automatically. Screenshot attached.

      Hello Omair,

       

      Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!

       

      I understand that you are having issues with your internet connection with RBR50. I noticed that you are not getting any connection between your RBR50 and your ISP. This can occur if your ethernet cable is damaged. Please replace the ethernet cable leading from your RBR50 WAN port to your ISP router. 

       

      Best,

      Kevin
