AX20 Rebooting at random

Lately my RX20 has been rebooting at random.  Yesterday it rebooted 2x.

 

Anyone know the cause of this?

  • What Firmware version is currently loaded?
    What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?

     

    Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?

     

    Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?

      Firmware.  Here's the issue.  Currently on FW 1.0.2.54.  When I updated to the next version 1.0.2.82, it broke the USB LED which I need to use.  So I reverted back to the previous FW.  I spoke directly to a engineer in Tiawan and he verified this issue and said it would be fixed in a "future version".  Since I dont see anything about the USB LED in any release notes, I have not updated.  Nobody in this forum can tell me if it's working in the latest 1.0.4.100.  Can you?

       

      There is slight wifi from neighbors.  I do not line in an apartment type complex, I'm in a single family home on an acre, so neighbors are not that close.

       

      I have Spectrum internet and modem provided by them #E31N2V1 - DOCSIS

       

      Thanks!!!

  • you have the RAX20?

    Have you checked the outlet its plugged into? 

    Maybe try it in a different outlet. Always worth checking what supplies the power.

      Yes, I have a AX20.  The outlet is fine as my PC and modem are connected to the same and no issues there.
