Internet (Ethernet and Wifi) drops once or twice daily R6900v2

Hi everybody, I've had this router for about a week now, and starting about 5 days ago the internet connection drops once or twice a day. It's super annoying, and I can't find anything on fixing it. I've downgraded the firmware right before this, I don't know if it will fix it yet; but I doubt it. 

  • I already fixed the problem, I downgraded and that pretty much solved it. I was on .62 I believe, but downgraded to .42

    What firmware did you downgrade to?

    What one were you on? 

    What modem are you using? 

    What fixes it? 

    have you checked the modem?
