What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?

Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
Try disabling the following and see:
MIMO, Daisy Chain, Fast Roaming, IPv6 and Set 20/40Mhz Coexistence to 40Mhz only. Save settings and reboot the router and satellite(s).
If you updated to recent FW v.210, try enabling Daisy Chain. Some have mentioned that this seems to be working in reverse order, enabling means disabled actually.

Thank you for your input:
Modem is Arris Surfboard S6183.
It's been a while since I've done a factory reset but symptoms existed prior to my last reset. I'll resort to that at some point soon when I can alot the time for getting everything back online :(.
In the mean time it's easy to test the other settings. Thank you.

If it's been a while and you haven't done a reset, may be time for one. Other report having good operation after a reset and setup from scratch.
You should be able to get it running soon after.
Let us know how it goes.
