Router Continuously reboots

Good Day.... I have been having an issue since I purchased my Fingbox back in April.  Ever since installed it, my router would self reboot approx 3-4 times per day... but recently it has been occurring 2-3 times per hour.  
I have trouble shot all my options before trying my Fingbox..  I thought was my Gigablast Technicolor CGM4141 from Cox... So I purchased a Surfboard  modem and a TP-Link AC 1750 (Archer A7) but the issue continued...  I changed all my smart home hubs and NAS drives, but nothing seem to stop the consistent self rebooting.  So this evening I decided to logout of my Fingbox, disconnect the power and ethernet cable and now all is working well.  
Has anyone ever encountered this issue either with the TP-Link AC1750 or any router?  If so is there a fix?  If not, is there a suggested router?  
I'd appreciate any feed back..  Have a great day!

    Hi @etienne, in the fingbox app there is a selection for "Slower Network discovery".  Give that a shot and see if it clears things up.  I have had network issues in the past when that had not been selected.

    Thats Daphnee, she's a good dog...

    Thanks @marc
    @Etienne let us know if that helps resolve the issue. It can create less stress on the network.

    Marc, thank you so much for the quick response....... As soon as I hit enter on my question, I received your response..  très rapidement!!!
    I'm going to wait 24 hours..... this is my last test. So far my router has not rebooted since I débranché Fingbox. I'm going to retry in the morning..  I'm just giving myself a rest. My entire home is overkill smart junk... so with the router going nuts, my house has been like a poltergeist for months.  
    I will let you guys know ASAP. I'm excited to give this a try, but more excited getting sleep 😁
    Who is your friend as your profile?  My Pistache is is inquiring.  His dating profile pic is in the link below!

    She is beautiful....  She looks and sounds like she comes from a good line.  
    As for Pistache, I had to spring him out of the joint.  He won't tell me what he is..... He's smart, he does advanced calculus by paw for fun, but he and his buddies have drinking problems, always has these stray bitches and tramps at all hours in his stud cave.  He speaks 5 languages, but doesn't say crap to me.  I had to bail him out last night for mauling ghost and hobgoblins... Below is his mug shot  🤣  Keep Daphne a good girl..

    @etienne how did you make out with the slower network discovery?
    Re: our dogs
    aww so sweet. I've got to add mine in too. 
    @marc Daphnee reminds me of my big one - Promi. He's a king charles too. 
    By the way, maybe we need a new thread for sharing our animal pics? Thoughts?
