Unexplained overnight crash, won't reset or connect to cable, modem can't be found. Is it an old W7 computer update failure causing this?

I get lights that eventually go all solid after an brief re-start, as is evidenced by the display of my NEST Digital Assistant beside it, as well as notification tones on household tablets and phones. It appears that for about 5 seconds I get internet, then zip.
I am unable to access the setup, either thru the app or a desktop, desktop does not connect at all to "routerlogin" and the app information seems inaccurate and sporadic, continuously indicates "cannot connect" or "not found". Various attempts at Factory re-set (while powered, or from powered off) was useless, re-set did nothing, not even re-set the wifi name.
I suspect this year-old "Rental Money saver" is now a "High priced Paper weight", but am hoping I am wrong.
