I actually have changed channels for other reasons but issue is on cams that are both wifi and ethernet so it won't be an RF interference issue

what camera's are you using?
Do they have a hub?
What modem/gateway is the router connected to?
How do you have everything wired if even the wired camera's are dropping?
(everything back to the nvr hub? through a switch? through the router?)

what camera's are you using? Various REOLINK cams
Do they have a hub? No,, no hub. IP cams
What modem/gateway is the router connected to? The RAX 70 router is connected to a Netgear DNGD4000 modem/router, (my old router)
How do you have everything wired if even the wired camera's are dropping? Not sure what you mean? Some of the cams are POE so obviously connected to a POE switch,, the others are IP WIFI cams
(everything back to the nvr hub? through a switch? through the router?) No NVR hub. The NVR connects directly to a switch wich connects to the router
