Current RAX120 firmware version
The web site download page shows the current firmware version as 1.0.2.136. This morning I checked using the phone app, and it shows a version 1.2.0.16 available. Installed OK but want to verify th...
I have CenturyLink fiber 1 gig by 1 gig service. Firmware 1.2.0.16 stops all LAN fort traffic and will not provide IPv6 via the wireless connections. Because I have CenturyLink fiber service, I must use a tagged V-LAN configuration. I do not have traffic metered.
Firmware 1.2.0.16 stops all LAN port traffic and will not provide IPv6 via the wireless connections.
I have owned my RAX120 since the initial release via the Premier Membership program which requires a monthly payment and provides no support. The router is the worst I have ever had, and I cannot terminate the agreement with Netgear.
All scenarios below result in no LAN port traffic and no IPv6.
- Tried factory reset the router several times and set it up from scratch, same results.
- Tried factory reset and restored a working configuration, same results.
- Downgraded the firmware, from scratch setup and tried upgrade, same results.
Beyond this I have tried a variety of configuration combinations, restored, and downgraded several times then going back to 1.2.0.16. It just does not work.
My conclusion is that the firmware is defective. I do not know what else to say.
Let me know what to try.
cadmanp I have the same CenturyLink 1G service, my PPPoE also requires me to use a tagged VLAN config (201). Can you confirm if you are able to establish non-SSL connections via LAN clients?
on Linux/macOS command-line: `curl -v http://google.com`
on Windows PowerShell: `iwr -v http://google.com`
Compare those outputs with https://google.com as the URL. I've been experiencing the same issue on all LAN ports after multiple resets.
soeun webder Do either of you use a tagged VLAN config for Internet access?
- I also have centurylink fiber which requires pppoe...
- Yes I use tag Vlan 201 which is required for centurylink.
I'm also on CenturyLink gig fiber using PPPoE and flagging as vlan 201. Wired connections could get to sites like google but not search when on the latest firmware.
I have Zero issue with new FW,I always do hard reset after the update.
- All the suggestions of doing a hard reset after downloading firmware from netgear do not work. I’ve done multiple resets with no luck.
