Dood try to do this one:

Since you can access the web based utility of the router, try to go to the advance tab and look for the Filter set-up page. as soon as you are in the filters set-up page look for the MTU. enable the MTU and on the size type 1492. and also i would suggest kindly check your keep alive configuration under the set-up page.

and after that do a power cycle.

but i doubt that there's something wrong with the router. nevertheless try to bypass the router and see if youre still disconnecting from the internet
