and restarting the ISP modem, router and devices in multiple different orders did nothing.
Did that include the recommended reboot regime?
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
- Turn off and unplug modem.
- Turn off router and computers.
- Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
- Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.

Yes that is the order I tried multiple times. Just as a followup, I changed the password BACK to the original and it hung again. So it is not our Iphones, Ipads or nintendos. It has to be something with home devices such as smart wall switches or cameras. There is a device that when it tries to connect it makes the system crap out. OR its multiple devices trying to get through at the same time. I would have thought this would have been stopped because at one point I had almost every breaker off in the entire house. I guess I am just relegated to adding devices to the network and cycling power to the MR60 until I find out which one is causing the issue.
