Nighthawk R7000 Dropping WiFi
I've seen other posts with this same subject line, but nothing more recent than 2020. This is really a long-term, frustrating situation. I suspect it was introduced with a firmware update a while ago...

What actually happens on your network? "dropping wifi" could mean many things. One possibility is that there is nothing wrong with the router but the wifi clients are disconnecting.
Nothing more recent than 2020 suggests that this is not a common issue.There have been around half a dozen firmware updates since then for the R7000.
