Wifi restarting by itself.

Starting a new thread because my previous one was moved to another thread that is totally unrelated.

 

My google nest wifi router keeps restarting on its own and its getting real annoying. The below mentioned is what I have done so far that didn't help.

 

  1. If you're using a modem/router combo, set that to bridge mode to avoid double NAT issues.
  2. Make sure that there is minimal to no interference (concrete, bulletproof glass, metal, mirror, etc.) and the points are no more than two rooms apart.
  3. Remove any special characters in your network name and password.
  4. Turn off IPv6.
  5. Change your DNS server into 8.8.8.8 on the primary and 8.8.4.4 on the secondary server. Hit the save/ floppy disk icon on the upper right.
  6. Unplug the power from your Google Wifi point for 2 minutes.
  7. If the issue persists, try factory resetting your network.

Please get back to me on how to resolve this issue as this has been ongoing for the past year.
