Sorry, that's not the name of any router. Do you mean Smart Hub Plus? Otherwise read its label or post a pix.

That's not a router but a WiFi Extender. Try moving it closer to the router.

@Beyond1 Have you used the APP and set the extender into a group, and then have it set to disable at the preset time?
You may have to check the app settings if you have possibly done this by mistake. Link below if you need it.
