Frequent WiFi disconnects on all devices on same network usually means the router is ready for retirement, especially if it's a bog-standard budget model like most of them.
Used to happen a lot in my household with a mid-priced Netgear router (they used to be reliable brand 10-15 years ago, not any more). After 1 year of good service I was having to restart it every day to restore WiFi function, which was frankly ridiculous.
Binned it and bought an expensive Billion router and it's 100% reliable I'm glad to say.

Don't pick a reply as best solution if you still need more advice because when you pick best solution the thread is marked as Solved and will therefore be ignored. I only came back to this thread by sheer luck today.
Only brand I recommend now is Billion (Amazon & others stock them).
Can't recommend a model 'cos it depends if you are ADSL or cable.
Mine's a Billion BiPac 7800 DXL for ADSL line. Solid as a rock.
