Try manually loading the FW file using IE11 or FF. Then do a full factory reset on the router and set up from scratch.
Change the IP address pool to 192.168.1.100 to .200.
What devices do you have connected on LAN?
Any LAN switches by chance?
Do all ports loose connection?
169 is a self assigned IP address, this doesn't come from the router. Means the device couldn't get an IP address from the router.

The only devices I have connected are the Xbox one X and the PC wired (through a wiring closet the apt. I am in has eports thoughout and a small switchboard for a router to be patched into) and an Google home wirelessly connected. It still says that it is connected to the network but isn't able to retrieve a ip from the router. I will change the pool as you asked tonight.
I will attempt your fix and get back to you!

Can you take the remove this patch panel and internconnecting temporarily and test with out it? Trying to see if anything else you may have connected could be causing problems.

A couple of other things to try:
- Do you have static IP on either your console or PC?
- If you connect them wirelessly, what IP address do they get assigned?
