Nighthawk R6400v2 daily says the password doesn’t work. Kicks everyone off
Using an Arris SB8200 modem, spectrum 200x10 internet. Firmware v1.0.4.102 on router.
Once a day I try to search something on my phone and it’ll just keep spinning saying I have no internet access. Then when I go to the WiFi page it’ll say that the password is incorrect on my device. The password doesn’t change from before.
If I unplug my modem it’ll restart and the password works fine, but in a day the problem will repeat. I have reset my router 5 of the last 7 days.
Typically the problem comes when my girlfriend and I are working during the day. We both work from home at the moment as most people do.
Any other information required feel free to ask.

Try this.
reinstall the firmware have a hardwired version, then factory reset and do a clean install (not from backup)
Reason why is if something is corrupt in the firmware a firmware reinstall will overwrite it. Doing a factory reset and clean install will ensure its not a setting causing the issue.
