Google Wifi routes requiring frequent reboots

Hopefully I selected the correct product, but I have have a Google Wifi AC1200 system and for the last 2-3 weeks I have been having to reboot it. All connected devices will slow way down until it is restarted. I have tried to isolate the issue and if I do a speed test from the Google Home app, the speed is at the max level that I am paying for, yet all other devices are slow. Its most noticeable on Apple TVs due to not being able to miss a hiccup when the buffer runs out.  Also, simply restarting the wifi system (remotely) will solve the issue as well, so I don't think it has to do with my ISP or my modem. These routers had been flawless up until recently... I have a little more than a month on the warranty and wonder if they need to be replaced.  My prior Orbi set lasted a few years, so I would expect these to work well for at least another year or so as well. Any help is appreciated.

Try to disable all preferred activities:

And make sure no device is stuck in priority mode:

Eventually try a factory reset and set up from scratch. Reuse the network name (SSID) and password, then devices should reconnect by themselves.


I don't work for Google.
