ARCHER C6 disconnecting from the internet.

Model: Archer C6  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.3.6 Build 20200902 rel.65591(4555)

Hello Internet, I have an Archer c6 (v2 EU) running the latest firmware 1.3.6. The internet connectivity LED shows red every 2-3 minutes. When it is green, upload speeds are almost zero. I initially argued with my ISP (Railwire). They eventually told me to connect the modem with PC using a dial-up connection directly, and my wonder (and shame) the internet works just fine. So ISP isn't at fault here. The only flaw is the router. I had done a factory reset, changed the cables, did everything I possibly can. I don't even have a spare router, and I'm stuck with no wifi around the house. Please help me out.

Who is your ISP, please? Is it PPPoE connection on the C6? Ensure you type in the internet parameters like username and password correct on the C6 WAN.

@Kevin_Z Hello Kevin. My ISP is Railwire, the username and password are correct. Also, the connection type is PPPoE on the C6. Haven't yet tried the beta software yet, but I will.
