Unfortunately this sounds like you have the same B12 firmware bug a lot of us have with this router

The B12 update was pushed around October time and causes the exact symptoms you describe

Three do not appear to believe/acknowledge that this issue exists. I have tried multiple times to get acknowledgment of this problem via this forum, but have had no success.

Seems this is a common issue with ZTE MC801A routers (see the many posts)

I have had mine since middle of Feb 2023 and it continually drops the 5G connection without recovering.

I have switched mine to 4G only and suffer the loss of speed but I am not happy.

Firmware version 0B15 (Latest)
