We can try resetting your router to its factory settings. Please note that all parameters, such as the name and the password of the Wi-Fi network will revert to the ones printed on the bottom of your router after this.
To reset it, take a look at the back of the device - there should be either a small button or a pinhole labeled “Reset” with the button being inside of it. Press and hold the reset button for 15 seconds, using the paperclip, if necessary. After that, release the button and wait 5-10 minutes for the router to finish rebooting and try connecting to your Wi-Fi to test the connection.
Here is what you'll need to find on the router
