My chromecast does that it is awful. When I unplug it to force restart it it works again for a few hours
Its good to know that it might just be the Chromecast itself and not any malware type stuff happening with it.
The problem is that I do have Smarttube installed and have been for 2 years
Damm it so it could be related! Are you going to do another install of it or just roll with it?
I also saw this wifi problem listed on a few reddit threads unrelated to SmartTube. Did you experience it before the Chromecast reset ?
I never had that problem before resetting it I guess I was just lucky
