HUB 4 loosing Internet connection

Since today having issues with HUB 4 :

I use it in modem mode (been like that for over a year, never had issues). This morning noticed not any device could access internet .

Rebooting the HUB sorted the issue for a couple of hours then issue appeared again. So every couple of of hours the HUB needs rebooting.

I tried to log into the HUB (wired)  i spotted a strange ip assigned to my device in 169.254.xx.xx, and i could get to the admin page via HTTP. after reboot it went back to 192.168.100 and could log in.

The hub keep its green light all the time, like there were no issues.

What the hell is going on, why the hub is doing that?

    Is the hub in modem mode? 

    Do you have a router to the hub? what is it? 

    Connect just a PC to the hub in modem mode when working connect PC to your router and change in WAN settings the WAN  MAC to your PC MAC then connect router to hub.

    If 169.254.xx.xx was assigned to your device that mean DHCP failed but that would be on your router? is your router LAN 192.168.0.x ?
