I am facing some issues with the NETGEAR Nighthawk WiFi 6 Router (RAX120). When I turned it on, it stops working after a while. Anyone has faced such situation

Please have an eye to Nighthawk With WiFi 6 (AX) And WiFi 6E (AXE) Routers to discus an learn about Nighthawk (RAX and RAXE Series) router products. Ensure you are operating the current firmware as available on https://www.netgear.com/support Keep in mind two RAX120 variants exist.
Start with installing this long term Beta firmware RAX120-V1.2.8.43-rc 10/19/2022
Factory reset and setup from scratch after its loaded. It fixes random reboot issues seen by users with the 120v2 unit.
Recommend setting the default DHCP IP address pool range to the following after applying and a factory reset: 192.168.#.100 to 192.168.#.200.
