Half my Netflix Library Disappears when I connect through my Google Router

I've suddenly encountered an issue in the last 24 hours where most of my Netflix library - including pretty much all of the shows I've been watching lately - disappear when I'm connected to the internet through my Google router. It doesn't matter what device I'm using; phone, PC/laptop, Smart TV, it's the same issue on everything. If I disconnect from the wifi and use cellular data on my phone, the shows magically re-appear. As soon as I reconnect to the wifi they're gone again. I went to someone else's house last night and signed into my Netflix account on their wifi and the shows were all there again. Here's the weirdest part: if I unplug my Google router and plug in an old DLink router that I had lying around, suddenly the shows come back again. The fact that I don't have the same issue with my other router leads me to believe it's an issue with the Google router and not something to do with my ISP.

 

I've been using this Google router with two wifi points since April of 2020 and never had an issue like this before. I'm running version 2.47 of the Google Home app on an iPhone 12 Pro Max, which is running iOS 15.1.1

 

I am not using a VPN if that's useful information. Does anyone have any ideas, or has anyone else had a similar issue? Netflix couldn't help me and contacting my ISP is like pulling teeth.

Any custom DNS settings?

Nope, DNS settings is set to automatic

Might try factory resetting it. If you set it back up using same SSID name and password, everything should just reconnect. 

Sorry, I should have mentioned that I performed a full factory reset and it didn’t solve the problem
