DreamArez 1.0Are you adverse to installing access points? I’d recommend going the Ubiquiti route if you’re not. If you are, grab the Deco’s off eBay and you’ll save some money plus get full fat tri band WiFi 7. https://ebay.us/m/35O3hp If you want to get equipment on a budget, Woot regularly has Arris equipment for dirt cheap. I can’t attest to how reliable they are at scale, but I hooked my parents up with a 3 pack on WiFi 6E for $60 and they’ve had no issues. https://www.woot.com/category/computers/networking-communication
RealBlueCayman 0.1Arris Surfboard products are actually really good, solid products. Having to reboot a product regularly is not normal. Just curious... are you running both routers at the same time? As for alternatives, I'd recommend Eero if you're looking for simpler, easy to use. If you need more complexity in the configuration, then Ubiquiti. You can get a Ubiquiti Cloud Gateway and Wifi 7 AP for less than $1k. It is more expensive though. I use both Eero and Ubiquiti.
