Wifi Randomly Shutting Off

Ive had this modem/router for nearly a year now. And its starting to randomly shut my wifi off. Ive tried rebooting to factory settings...If I unplug the modem and reboot the wifi will work for a few mins/hours until it shuts off and goes rogue. The ethernet port is still working but no wifi signal can be found. Anyone else with this problem? 

 

Firmware: V2.01.14

ISP: Vyve

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

     

    Try a factory reset and setup from scratch...
