I ran into the exact same problem with the RAX50, same firmware version. Safari no longer works, as you describe, on either Mac or iPad. I filed a support ticket; haven't heard back. Meanwhile the workaround is to use Firefox. That works fine on both Mac and iPad.

      Same problem here on RAX45 with V1.0.5.106.  Firefox doesn't work for me, under Linux.  Safari & Chrome doesn't work either, tried these under iOS.  Will try a firmware downgrade...

        FYI, downgrading my RAX45 to firmware V1.0.4.100 resolved the issue for me.
