Link Aggregation Race Conditions RAX200 and SB8200
I just purchased the RAX200 and have configured it for link aggregation with the SB8200. When running properly I achieve download speeds of 1.2 Gigs. Every 24 hours or so the download speeds gor to 3 or 4 Megs. If I unplug one of the ethernet cables to speed goes back to 950 Megs or so. I can then plug in the cable I had disconnected and get back to the 1.2 Gig speeds.
My guess is that this is caused by a race condition. The RAX200 is showing that more than 4 Billion packets have been receiveed in 24 hours but very few packets have been transmitted.
I don't want to have to do this everyday. Any thoughts on how to correct this?

I wouldn't use the link aggregation with the sb8200.
Disable it and use the gigabit connection. You loose the over provisioning from your isp but you're connection will be more stable.
Arris is aware of the issue with the SB8200.
Yes, the link is very stable if the WAN LAG is disabled on the RAX200
