Modem drops internet service every night

There are a lot of things that can be causing these problems.

My first thought is what is your signal strength.  In one part of my house it is GOOD and in another it is WEAK.  There is an app that I came across a couple of years ago that can track your wifi signal strength.  I got it on playstore but have since not reinstalled it on my new phone and don't remember its name.

For other reasons do a Google search on "causes for wifi drops" or similar phrases.  You may b surprised at some of the reasons why wifi is dropped, especially with older computers.

When there is no internet, the eero has a red light eventually, not always right away.  When I had Cox, the eero and the Lenovo always immediately showed there was no connection to the internet.  The globe icon replaced the signal one with Cox internet. Now, as I said, the Lenovo shows it is connected, even when it's not!  On the T-Mobile gateway, my connection is always "good", and only occasionally "very good".  

I know when my internet is going to go out, its about 11:30 pm, the signal strength suddenly goes from its typical  'weak`, 2 bars, to 5 bars.

I have to wait for the Cell Spot to reconnect, I have to reestablish the TV connection and if it's live, not streaming, I've missed 5 min of the show.

It may be internet, but it's not a service. It's a joke. Maybe tmobile doesn't like Steven Colbert.
