Nighthawk XR500 keeps rebooting every 2 hours

Hello,

 

I just got an XR500 on black friday. Everything seem to be working fine till my brother connected to it via WiFi 5g and it seems to reboot every 2 hours or so.

 

Tried changing the frequency on both 2.4/5. Did the basic troubleshooting of rebooting the device and modem. Same results.

 

I am on the latest firmware. Once the router was setup I updated to the latest firmware. Any suggestions?

 

Firmware Version

V2.3.2.130

 

DumaOS Version

3.0.202
