Latest RAX43 Firmware doesn't work with Safari 15.2
Hi all, My question relates to the RAX43 AX5 WiFi 6 Router and the lastest firmware being V1.0.5.106_2.0.70. When using the latest Safari browser v15.2 on a MAC none of the Advanced settings are...
I found a workaround. Once connected to the routers Basic web interface type any junk behind your rounter url....for example: https://192.168.1.1/junk You will get a 404 error, then hit the broswer back button and you can then gain access to the Advanced settings.
That workaround doesn't work for me, using Safari on iPadOS.

The workaround works for me in Safari for iOS, iPadOS and MacOS....here is a screenshot from iPadOS. Not sure why it does not work for you unless you are on different OS version or in the routers case a different firmware version than me.
Might have something to do with the fact that I have a RAX50, not a 43. Using ipadOS 15.2.1.
I'm not going to spend any more time on this until I hear that Netgear has a fix. I have a different workaround, using Firefox on Mac. I have bigger fish to fry. :-)
Hi all,
So the latest firmware for the RAX43 which is V1.0.10.110_2.0.75 still doesn't fix the issue using Safari 15.4 on MacOS (Monterey 12.3.1).
The Advanced Tab/Options are still unavailable even when clicking, trying to open in a new window or trying a different user agent.
It would be nice to understand the issue behind this from Netgear's point of view. Here we are in April, two firmware releases later and no one has bothered to address a fairly straight forward and fundamental issue. The beta firmware prior to V1.0.10.110_2.0.75 addressed the problem yet it doesn't make it into the next release candidate.
I do find it incredulous that Netgear cannot fix this issue as it would seem loyalty doesn't mean anything however, the bottom line does.
While I have wasted heaps of time on this issue I don't plan on giving up because I paid for a product that I expect to work!
