Nighthawk XR700 can’t connect after power outage

Every time I have a power outage I cannot reconnect my WiFi and have issues. I’ve done all the trouble shooting and eventually have to do a hard reset to fix the issue using a network name that hasn’t been used before and have to manually reconnect all my WiFi products (have about 50).

    There isn't really anything I could suggest setting wise as the power surge probably causes a weird half reset. The only thing I could say is to have it plugged into a surge protector so it doesn't happen again.
