RS280 - Daily internet drops affecting both wired and WiFi - v1.0.6.16
I have an RS280 on the latest firmware v1.0.6.16 and have been experiencing daily internet drops for the past few days. Both wired and WiFi lose internet simultaneously, and a reboot always fixes it....

Does the RS280 have a screen similar to this:
It might be interesting to observe:
- The length of the IP lease provided by the ISP (Spectrum, for example, gives me 86,400 seconds - one day)
- When the IP lease is scheduled to expire.
Would be quite a coincidence if the network problem happens when the IP lease is scheduled to expire.
