I have tried every "solution" that I could find, including a complete
reset. None of them work: the last post I came across stated (bluntly)
that the problem could not be solved. Google, it seems, does not feel
that it's profitably to support long-term customers whom aren't buying
new devices every quarter-hour.
My 2¢ - YMMV.

Subject: FCC's January Meeting Agenda Includes Proposed Disclosur=
es
For All Broadband Providers
27 January 2022
by Debra McGuire Mercer and Joshua Guyan
Empowering Broadband Consumers Through Transparency - The ISP NPRM
would propose rules to implement certain provisions in the
Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act ("Infrastructure
Act"). Specifically, Section 60504 of the Infrastructure Act directs
the Commission to "promulgate regulations to require the display of
broadband consumer labels" to "disclose to consumers information
regarding broadband Internet access service plans." In accordance with
that statutory mandate, the ISP NPRM would propose consumer labels
consistent with a 2016 Public Notice (DA 16-357). In the 2016 Public
Notice, the Commission set forth various required consumer disclosures
related to fixed and mobile broadband services, including information
about pricing, data allowances, broadband speeds, network management
practices and fees. The Commission would also seek comment on the
following issues: whether any changes should be made to the content of
the consumer labels contained in the 2016 Public Notice; where the
consumer labels should be displayed; how to ensure the accuracy of the
content of the labels; and the effective date of the label
requirements.

***** Commentary *****
I think the FCC should order all TV stations and Streaming Media
providers (e.g., NetFlix) to include notices on every program or
movie they show, warning viewers that:
- The Tall White Guy will make all the decisions.
- Anyone who hesitates to do what the Tall White Guy says will always die.
- Nobody will ever question the Tall White Guy, except for other Taller White Guys.
- The Tall White Guy never needs to take toilet breaks.
- The Tall White Guy will solve all the problems within sixty minutes, with time out for commercials of one sort or another.
