Online support says the issue is the splitter and will send a new one, but I find it hard.to believe the splitter is causing an issue at one specific time every night. Thoughts?
Did you just plug it in and go with the default wireless settings?

If so I would suggest manually setting up a separate 2.4 and 5 connections. iirc by default its one connection that handles both and switches based on signal strength and whatnot. Could be an issue with it trying to switch to 5 on things that aren't compatible.
