Just happened again on my router after 22 days of uptime in AP mode.
Same symptoms - router was pingable (and web UI was usable) over IPv6, but the IPv4 LAN interface was logically dead - no ping response and claimed it couldn't reach the Internet for updates, despite the web UI status saying "Internet: GOOD". Logs show an Internet 'disconnect' just after midnight, yet router will continue to route Internet traffic without issue. I was able to reboot via web UI and all was well after.
I've now enabled debug logging at boot. This is definitely a bug related to uptime, likely overflowing a 32-bit int somewhere. (In fairness, even Cisco enterprise-class devices have had similar bugs in the past.)
