Router consistently rebooting daily

I have only had this router for about a week now. Every day between 5pm to 8pm local time for myself. The lan ports stop working. 
The router is plugged directly into the wall, not a powerstrip against my better judgement since my computer, 2 monitors, and cable modem are also plugged into a powerstrip with no issue or loss of power. The firmware is up to date, I made sure that the firmware was completely up to date when setting it up. 
V2.3.2.56 is its current Firmware.

I have only changed the name and password. Set the location and since then left it alone after the initial setup. Without fail it keeps restarting during this time. What is causing this? My old router, a netgear R6300 started losing wifi connectivity this year after having it for several years (I beleive its been about 10 years now).

This now is beyond infuriating. Especially since this is the first Gaming router I have bought. I also work from home as an IT Remote Technician.
