Nest Wifi Pro dropping network a couple of times per week....

A couple of times per week my Nest Wifi Pro (mesh set up  4 boxes) drops the network. Once it does that it seems like it enters a "loop" as the network comes up, goes down, comes up etc and it is blinking yellow (according to https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/6191584?hl=en#zippy=%2Cnest-wifi-pro-router it means network error). Funny enough if I try to "restart network" in the Google Home app it "solves" the problem.

I used to have a 1 generation Google wifi setup with 5 boxes and didn't see any such problems. Unfortunately I cannot completely rule out that it is my ISP as just after I replaced the network I switched ISP (to altibox for anyone who knows about them). I've set the ISP modem in "bridge mode".

Given that "restart network" seems to solve the problem (at least the "loop" stops and it stays online) I have a bad feeling that it could be something related to the Nest Wifi Pro boxes, but where should I start debugging the problem? I've looked in the Home app, but I can't find an "event log" or something.. 

Anyone seeing the same problem? or have ideas on how to fix it?

Negative, it would be nice if Google would share anything (i.e. issue recognized and it should be patched with firmware update on this date)
