On most updated firmware.
Connected to Spectrum Modum that works fine when direct connected and does not have any drops in history.
The signals show full signal but there is no internet on wifi or wired devices.
When you power cycle everythign is fine for about two hours then need to do again.
Did hard reset and still have same problem. Did multiple power cycles last night. This morning disabled guest network and mu mimo.

We know who supplied the modem, but not what brand and model it is.
That is important information if you want to get to the bottom of your problems.
The symptoms you describe are suspiciously like those we have seen here when people tried to get their router work with an "incompatible" modem that need careful configuration.

Google isn't definitive, but that looks like a standard cable-modem with voice. No built-in router ti make life complicated.

Yes, I do not believe it is the modem. I have beenin this house for 6 months issue free until December. I actually went on Best Buy Website in November and gave router a 5* review because i was impressed with coverage in larger house and a year of no issues. Then the following month everything went to hell. It is like a planned obsolence. Upon googling and trying to fix myself because im just outside of support period i found numerous threads on here and reddit all experiencing the same exact problem. Knock on wood with the mu-mimo disables i have not had a drop in 24 hrs.
