RT-AC68R connection drop troubleshooting - need your help

AtriosM3

New Around Here
Hello SNB Community,

I've been hovering here for quite a while, and decided to join and make my first post. I hope you can help me troubleshoot my issue with my RT-AC68R router.

Current issue:
-At times (can be weeks in between), the router will drop connection all of a sudden. Connecting via Wi-Fi and LAN does not work.
-I.E. WiFi will not connect at all - will say connecting but then not connect
-LAN it says when I try to troubleshoot "Ethernet does not have a valid IP configuration". Also, it will not allow me to connect into the router when the LAN is connected at this stage.

Fix
-I shutdown the router and turn it back on via the button on the back of the router. This fixes the issue. However, I am puzzled with the log. You will notice that the log transitions from May 9th to Nov 30th and back to May 10th.....very curious. I have attached the log as a PDF (couldn't add to post otherwise).

If you could help me analyze this log, as to what may be causing this crash and weird data switch, it would be most appreciated.

Thanks!

Please, anyone - chime in on your thoughts on this.
I've had this happen twice more since last time....really curious to find out why I get Nov 30th in my log....does that have to do something with my router restarting after I turn it off....or is someone trying to hack my router....

Thanks!
