What modem/gateway is the router connected to?
I've seen where users connection to their ISP's lease time was only 24 hours and when the lease expired, it had to renew and caused the same issue.

Do you think a renewing lease can cause the WiFi to drop? Literally all our devices lose WiFi, cellphones go to cellular and Apple TV gives a notification that WiFi is disconnected. White blinking light on the router like it’s rebooting and the WiFi reconnects in a minute or so.
I can check with cox and see how long the IP lease is but this started happening like two weeks ago and it’s been setup the same way since we got the Orbi system in 2021.

I will try downgrading. I checked and it is a 24 hour lease. WiFi went out at 11, router stats show system uptime a minute after WiFi went out so it’s definitely rebooting. Ugh. Hopefully the downgrade helps!
Thank you

Sadly it is still rebooting. Speaking to family members it's been happening multiple times a day but I just only noticed it at night. Perhaps it's a defective router I don't know at this point, but I'm buying a different router and hooking it up and will see what happens.
