Again, thank you for your quick response.
1) The time is exact (I measured it with my watch).
2) I'd love to give you a screenshot, but I can't - the "zeroing" was visible for a second or two, and then disappeared (some devices registered as "off-line" for the same split second).

@Kevin_Z happens about once every 24 hours. Been at different times. Twice it woke up in the morning to find the internet down. Today also failed late afternoon. When I login it the router, it says there is no internet connection. I can check next time if tehre is any WAN Ip address. From memeory no IP address for the WAN as it said the internet connection was down. I will look at the LED colour. The router is in the roof, so I did not see the LED colour these times. i just used the tether app or login via LAN to reboot the router.

I recently posted in the thread which you created; hopefully, we'll get the problem(s) solved.
As an aside, I'd like to add that I'm very pleased with the continuing support for the AX11000. I think I've written this somewhere before, but I'll just repeat myself and say that it is the best router that I've ever owned.

1. Is the internet connection 100% stable before this firmware update? Is updating the AX11000 firmware to 1.3.1 Build 20220721 the only change before and after the internet issue occurs?
Yes, the connection was stable before this firmware update. Yes, this was only change.
2. When the internet is not available, what is the LED status on the AX11000, orange or white?
Orange. Personally, it looks more red to me than orange. It does take a few moments to change from white to orange.
3. Will the internet recover if you click the Release then Renew on its web GUI?
Unsure about the web GUI. I have only found the physical button on the back to reboot to allow reconnection.
4. Your Country and your Internet Provider.
Canada and Rogers.
Please advise how this can be fixed.
I attempted to load up the prior firmware (ax11000v1-up-ver1-2-1-P1[20210511-rel77051]_sign_2021-05-12_09.31.22.bin), but after clicking update, the error message becomes "Upload Error."
I attempted the Factory Restore, however it still had the same new firmware as I sadly expected. I had to set the network back up (regrettably).
