Firmware is the culprit. If it's not up to date, try updating to the latest version.
Try using different channels.

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
The cheaper TP-Link routers are not designed for heavy traffic and are more susceptible to crashes/freezes.
You can try support (they usually answer).
But you can solve your problem by buying a power outlet with a timer and power cycle the router every x hours.
