Nighthawk Router AC1750 keeps dropping out.
Greetings, I have had this router for one and a half years. Recently it started to drop out several times a day. I am not aware of any changes withihn my network. Any suggestions?

The orange light is what first comes on when you power up the WiFi router. White would mean that the unit is functional.
I don't see anything in the router log that indicates a failure or looks unusual. I have had this setup for a year and a half and it worked fine until recently.
The Spectrum Modem is a Hiltron Tech E31N2V1 DOSSIS 3.1 eMTA.

In other words, when you rush into the room, if you see an orange light the router is rebooting itself. That indicates that something odd is happening. If not, it would be white when you got there.
