Model: Archer AX73  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.0.3 Build 20210717 rel.64680(4555)

my brand new AX73 is dropping the wifi and wan connection constantly.  Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? I have tried all the usual suspects (disabling Smart connect, changing wifi channels etc). The logs show these services constantly starting and stopping: This is from the last two hours.

Not only does the internet disconnect (the led turns orange), but every wifi device is disconnected from the router while this happens.

I am on a fibre connection (100/100). I set the dns to 8.8.8.8 and 1.1.1.1 and changed the CAT5 cable to the modem, nothing worked

 

The connection is stable and does not drop at all using my old router, a TP-Link Archer C2, here is 90 minutes worth of logs with the C2 router:

Internet connection stable and active the whole time.

 

Here are the latest logs from the faulty AX73 Router:
