Question / Help OBS Studio causes Router Shutdown?

Hello guys,

so I will start explain my problem from the beginning on:
I streamed for over 2 weeks a 24/7 live stream on Youtube, without having any interruption or problems - NO PROBLEMS.
Then it started to get weird. The stream stopped in the middle of the night an restarted.. I thought it might be a problem because of the router (restarting in middle of the night - but no he does not do that!).
I came to the conclusion, that i need to call my Internet provider - so they found a problem outside (at the internet
distributor) and fixed this. Today the technician were again here, tested everything and the instable connection got fixed (as he said).
And now, I tried to start the stream once again - I only launched OBS Studio at my streaming PC - I did not even start streaming and the whole internet went offline!

So to sum this up: The router is like restarting or reconnecting to the internet at some point, when the streaming PC / OBS Studio is running.

My question now:
I actually don't know what the problem could be. It must be OBS Studio or my PC.. I don't even know..
What the hell is the problem? I streamed for like 2 weeks without ANY problem. and suddendly the problems were everywhere. Connection instable, etc. etc. but ONLY when the stream was running!!
Is it a problem in OBS? Is something wrong with my PC? Does a Router have a auto-shutdown function to prohibit from *i dont even know*..?

Additional information:
I use this streaming PC only for the 24/7 livestream, so it was turned off the last days.
I only had the internet shutdowns - when the PC was running and/or the stream too.


Please let me know if you need any additional information..

Thanks in advance.

I browsed so much about this.. I really have no idea what the problem could be, but yeah probably its not because of OBS and its just a weird coincidence..
I guess its something in the Router Settings or the PC itself causes that
