Thanks for your reply. I have powercycled the modem a couple times before and it did not help previously.
Last time, I took the channels off auto and I selected 9 for the 2.4G (because 1, 6, and 11 were heavily used) and 149 for the 5G. I've attached the images below. I live in a townhome so there are a number of competing neighbors, at least 11 - 18.
Currently, it seems the latest fix is holding without any disconnections -- which was yesterday I reset to factory and kept the default network names ("Netgearxx") as well as found a less congested channel.
