Called Frontier and found that a hard power-cycle resolves the issue temporarily. Unfortunately, it crops up again after a few hours; how is this possible? Is it a problem on my end?

Maybe your ONT is going bad. In any case, this is an issue for Frontier support to resolve with you. -- ♬ Dragon of good fortune struggles with the trickster Fox ♬
When I had similar issues with the router locking up frequently, I swapped out my router for a Linksys E4200 router, cloned the MAC address and didn't have to worry about it again (I fortunately have Ethernet drop-off). The Actiontec routers that Verizon used to offer prior to the take over were terrible. I don't know what they're handing out these days, but you can get a MOCCA compatable third party router if you're on Coax now too (Motorola has a few, for example) and have something where the software will get at least a couple of updates during its lifespan.
