This sounds like it may be the communication board.

We had this laptop once that had a network card issue. The thing was that every morning when you would start it up, the card would work for about half n hour. After that, it just stopped responding.
@ the end it wasn’t the whole card that was faulty, but a chip on the board- of that network card, that kept overheating.
Intermittent problems is mostly caused by something like this.

Yes the device works fine, but after a while...

When two PC's give the same result, that also gets scratched off the list.

All that is left unfortunately is that it may be a chip on the communications board.

Sending it in is the only option left..
Sorry - - - but hey maybe they just replace the board inside, which would'nt be too expensive. better than buying a new one.

Good Luck
