What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
What is the distance between the router and 📡 satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS📡 to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.

What channels are you using? Auto? Try Auto and 48 on 5Ghz. Or try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 40 to 48 channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?

firmware V4.6.8.2 for the router.
I am using a CM600 modem with optimum.
I'm not sure about the distance, but my backhaul is good.
Satellite 1 - 2 is V4.6.8.2
Satellite 3 is V4.6.5.14, it says there's no new firmware for this one.

What browser are you using? Try a different browser?
What are you seeing when you trying to set an IP address reservation?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?

I tried, chrome edge and safari. I don't think it's browser related since I the devices can't connect to the wifi. It says invalid IP address when I try to connect to it.
I'll try the firmware updates.
Factory resets seems to be the only way to fix it. A simple reset doesn't fix it. Some devices will still have trouble connecting but it resolves itself after about a day later.
