Plex is on the Native Synology app. Sonarr, radarr, etc are in containers. The Synology NAS intermittently stops being accessible. I haven’t been able to figure out the problem. I find it impossible to troubleshoot network problems. I think it is my router. Restarting the router seems to fix it. Factory resetting the router didn’t solve the problem.
In summary: my wife is fed up and wants Netflix back.
If this ends up being the place someone is able to offer support, I’ll add some details:
Media fetch project containing Sonarr, Radarr, and Bazarr.
This seemed to work fine before I added the Arr’s. Even after I added Arr’s it worked fine initially, but now for the past few weeks it has been causing constant problems that are solved by restarting the router (once or twice a day).
Synology was terrible for me. Unraid is where it’s at. I don’t really ever mess with it anymore. Also Plex was horrendous for uptime too. I use jellyfin.

Equipment:
Virgin Media Hub 3 (set to modem only mode) -> TP-link AX73 | AX5400 -> LAN connection to Synology with static IP set in Synology settings.
Synology has the Plex app (native Synology version from the Plex website). Alongside that I’m running the following Docker containers:
GlueTUN project with surfshark VPN. This runs qBittorrent, Prowlarr and FlareSolverr (I used (this guide)[https://drfrankenstein.co.uk/qbittorrent-with-gluetun-vpn-in-container-manager-on-a-synology-nas/] and (this guide)[https://drfrankenstein.co.uk/prowlarr-and-flaresolverr-via-gluetun-in-container-manager-on-a-synology-nas/])

Getting Plex and the *arrs off the NAS and onto a NUC really helped speed things up for me. That and moving over to UNIFI for my networking hardware.

Which router is it?
TP-link AX73 | AX5400
I’ve added details to the comment above in case anyone is able to make sense of my problem.
