Bad news, it was a temporary fix and the issue reappeared only after a few minutes.

So the fix is if you need to make changes to your port forwarding rules is to reboot, hopefully they show to make the necessary changes.

You need to disable all logging functions, not just clear the logs and reboot. There's a long list of things to uncheck. Once it stops logging, it won't erase your PF settings. Netgear really needs to fix this.
This fix has been working for me since I posted about it weeks ago.

I am aving the exact same problem out of my RAX75 but this fix is not working. Any updates on it?

I'm sorry to hear this trick isn't working for you. It's been a while since I looked at this. Did you completely disable logging, delete current logs, and reboot? If so, there maybe another issue.
Please respond to this thread if you find a different cause and solution.
