I've just moved from cable to 5G. My 5G is from Lyca over a Zyxel NR5103EV2. This is running in bridged mode. My main router is a Linksys MR7350.

Every couple of days I get an internet not reachable from multiple devices. The status led on the front of the Linksys goes red. But the leds on the front of the Zyxel NR5103EV2 look fine (green,blue,blue,green). If I reboot the router, the led starts flashing blue, then sometimes goes steady blue, and the devices re-connect, or sometimes goes back to red. It always seems to be working again within 10 mins, but my partner is blaming me for switching networks!

How can I trouibleshoot this? Is it likely to be Lyca, the Zygel or the Linksys?
