DHCP Internet Issues
Hope this helps someone. I have experienced issues with devices losing their IP address and same with my Orbi RBR850 and satellites. Happened back in October 2022 and again last week. After many...

You aren't alone with this. Just bought a MyQ and found the same weird thing where despite resetting the NightHawk and resetting the internet cable that with MyQ connected certain other things like my phone could no longer connect to the Wifi. Powering down MyQ and restarting NightHawk everything then connects again (I don't have 80 things but do have 30 things conneced). I could then power up and reconnect the MyQ. What I've done for now is isolate it onto my guest wifi which is 2.4 GHz. The house private wifi was set up as Smart, but even when I undid that the myQ was messing things up. Would love to know what the issue is here

I have a friend as well with the same setup and no issue.
Have not yet done factory reset on myQ, wanted to let the network rejoice before introducing that back in…but will do and update in a few days.

So today rejoined the myQ device back to my wireless network. So far no issues detected and that is good.
It has been 10 hours and no issues. Prior to the resetting Wi-Fi on the device, it would almost immediately cause issues.
Life is good once again.

Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
