5G issues - SSID disappears
My RAX80 has stopped broadcasting the 5g network on all my 5g capable devices. Any suggestions on how to fix this? It appears randomly.
I reboot the router, 5G appears.
FW ver: V1.0.1.56_1.0....
Thank you, I think my problem is same as here.
After update, I've full reseted the router.
I use channel 60, it is not a DFS channel.
I have many devices have the latest updates for their operating systems and Wi-Fi drivers. Nintendo Switch, Xperia XZ2, Galaxy S10, etc.
Not sure where you're located but quite a few places consider channel 60 DFS. here's a link with the list midway through.

thank you. I try ch.36 now and wait a few days.
In the RAX120 router wireless settings if WPA3 or WPa2 + WPA3 is selected my 5ghz SSID disappears or is not able to connect.
If only WPA2(AES) is selected all is well.
I leave the AX support box unchecked.
Resetting the router after the latest firmware update did nothing to correct this issue.
Paying $25/mo to be a beta tester is not fun.
Hello whatsthepoint,
Thank you for your post. I'd like to more details about your report and ask what devices are able/not able to connect when WPA2 + WPA3 is selected?
Looking forward to hearing back from you!
