Could there be an issue if they both have the same IP address? Which I think they do? (M1 Nighthawk to RAX120 connected with matching IP's)

To anyone who ever stumbles across this that needs it.
When using an M1 Nighthawk 4G router under Settings/Advanced settings/Other - you must check DMZ and enter a Static IP of your choosing
ie: 192.168.25.1
On your RAX120 or similar model Router :
ADVANCED/Advanced Setup/Static Routes - enter your customer entered Static IP that you just added on the M1's DMZ mode - ie: 192.168.25.1
Then on the RAX go to ADVANCED/Internet Setup/ scroll to the section " Internet IP Address" and check the box for "Use Static IP". Select Apply at the bottom of your screen and the RAX and M1 work flawlessly.
Failure to use a Static IP and keeping both their IPs the same causes major communication issues between units. The RAX is an amazing unit but is most definitely not the user friendly Plug and Go it should be with a price ranging from $350-$499 in cost. Just my 2 cents.
