Nighthawk AC1900 /R7000 and Nighthawk AX3600 Triband Mesh

I have the AC1900/R7000 connected to my Internet line. I have connected the AX3600 Triband Mesh to the AC1900 Router. My app shows that the Triband Mesh MR80  is the router. My internet has to reset at least once a day. Should I assume that the AC1900 is not being utilized and it is crossing the connection? Should I simply connect my  Internet to the AX3600 Mesh router?

    AX3600 is a speed, not a model. 

    What actual mesh system do you have? 

    Also, if you're using both in router mode, you'd be in a double nat.

    If you're going modem---->r7000----->mesh system, you could simply put the mesh system in access point mode
