What channels are you using? Auto? Try Auto and 48 on 5Ghz. Or try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 40 to 48 channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?
Be sure to not enable Armor, Circle or Traffic Meter.

I tried the latest and had drop outs right away. I want to know from the community which software version can I revert back to that will give me the best stability and speeds. I currently have 900mbs DL speed and do not get even close.
I was on update 1.0.9.88_10.2.88 and now update to 1.0.11.134_10.2.119 has lots of issues when power or internet led turn orange and needed restart it (is way I try to update it).
Hope this update fix it (way I was on so old update was because my router not find any new update and today I look on the site).
So fare no issues (but will probably know soon :)) When both this It was really bad (was bug in the firmware so it consistency lose connection (has to want on fix for weeks)).

What CAT# lan cable are you using between the modem and router? CAT6 is recommended.
Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and router been performed since last update?
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
Turn off and unplug modem.
Turn off router and computers.
Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
Turn on computers and rest of network.Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?

Some type of switch I use from Internet Service Provider (inteno xg6745). Is more often power light is orange an internet connection (but both this problems get solved when turn it on an off directly when it happens on r7000 router).
Cables is mix of cat5e and cat 6 (proved same speed and the switch don't offer more an 100). I think the router start to give up, has done like this for around a 1 or 2 years now. Only hoping it will last little longer with latest FW update (planing on replace it with something more stable).
yes I even need restart (it never recover self, I try left it for around 8 hours with orange power light). So i only need turn it off an on (I not need wait 2 minutes). It already take 2/3 minutes to fully start (so also wait 2 minutes more some not do any differences is only waste off time).
I think I don´t have reset it for years.

Is this a modem or ONT or a LAN switch? I presume a modem or ONT?

Only hoping it will last little longer with latest FW update (planing on replace it with something more stable). I recommend not using a mix of different CAT# cables. It's best to keep with 1 CAT version. I would check all your cables. CAT6 is recommended between the modem and router.
Test the router at a different location. If the problem follows then you'll know it's the router to be sure.

I think I don´t have reset it for years. If you haven't done this, would be a good time if you can find the time. Its a recommended troubleshooting step.
