I should mention that I've formerly used at least two other routers before with this modem and haven't had this particular issue.
I've seen several different brands of combo devices that didn't properly implement their bridge modde.
What I'd try for troubleshooting?
put the zyzel back in router mode but disable its wireless. Then run the netgear in AP mode. See if the problem still happens. If it does, it wasn't related to that. But if it doesn't, its an issue with how zyzel implements their bridge mode.

- I checked more troughly the modem options and found another Bridge mode option, switched to that, but then it was after a few hours the problem was entirely gone, it's been almost a day since it got stable, nos a single disconnection. Made that did the trick, there's also a chance maybe it was my bandwitch all along due the quarantine situation, I installed the router the very same day it began. Who knows, anyways, it seems is all good now, thanks a lot for your assistance!
