Could you please send us the diagnostic logs of WAX610y? You can upload into google drive and send me a link via PM.
BTW: How many WAX610Y you have?
Thanks,

I cannot access the logs, I can't even find the WAX610Y on my router device list. I only have one of these units, the others are WAC540s. I have a NetGear modem/router and everything is hardwired. I have a C7800 router (wifi off) connected via ethernet to all devices including 3 access points (2 - WAC540, 1 - WAX610Y and a switch GS324TP). All the wireless devices show as "wired" since they connect via the wired access points. Router is connected to the GS324TP switch, switch is connected to all wired devices and the access points (WAC540 / WAX610Y).
UPDATE: after a couple restarts I was able to get device to show up in my router with an IP address. It says the logs are not a valid format (.gz). "
- The file wax610y-officewax610y-13-07-21_15-59-14-logs.tar.gz does not have a valid extension for an attachment and has been removed. jpg,gif,png,pdf are the valid extensions." I could not open the file in acrobat to try and save as PDF.

We have made some improvements on this issue front. Please upgrade to this firmware if not and share your feedback.
