Usually we only have 5 devices connected. 3 PC's connected via ethernet, 1 cell via 5G, and a Roku via 5G. The modem is from AT&T. We have fiber; BUT it was also doing this with the Spectrum/Charter (cable) modem until we switched last month as well.
Also please note that the internet still works for devices that are already connected, but are very limited in speed (~100mb) AND any newly started apps will not work. For instance, I tried to start Discord during one instance, and it would fail to load and tell me I didn't have an internet connection - but Firefox windows that were currently open would continue to work.
that version of firmware has had some DNS issues.
I'd try downgrading a version of the firmware and see if it helps
