I wouldn't trust flipping the fuse to the house because of thundering herd issues. When I restart my router I first disconnect all WiFi clients and unplug the Ethernet connections. Then I let it do its thing, download its mysterious updates, etc. Only when it's solidly online do I reconnect the clients one by one...

Do you have smart home devices? And how many user/interactive devices (phones, tables, laptops) do you have? Manually disconnecting and reconnecting WiFi clients would take me hours

I only use WiFi on my phone. Everything else is wired, including my laptop since it sits right next to the router and I’ve seen too much of the RF spectrum to rely on it unnecessarily…
