Cannot reconnect to Wifi

I have an issue, where my router sometimes stops letting devices connect. All currenlty connected devices work, but if I leave the house and come back, our phones will not connect. On the phone it just says can't connect to "SSID". The phone has been connected prior with no issues.

 

If I reboot the router, everything comes back and works as expected. Does anyone have ideas one what might be the fix? I have updated to the lates version of firmware.

 

Thanks!

Have you tried to forget the network in your phone settings and then reconnect? it could have some old wifi settings saved causing the issue.

Yes. It actually happens with any device I try to connect. What is connected works, but trying to reconnect anything that had been previously or anything new just fails.
