if your internet connection is dropping nightly about same time it suggests it is something in your home that is causing the problem. Something in your home switching on or off the most common is your central heating boiler arcing causing electrical interference

I have underfloor heating it is on 24/7 so nothing special happens between 10pm and 10.30pm Is there any filter i can put on router to power supply to rule that out?
