This new firmware completely screwed up my RAX43. It started with a reset of all my SSIDs, but I just renamed them.
The real problem was wi-fi connectivty stopped working on both the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz channels. It would only stay connected for 3-4 minutes and then die. I would have to reset router, and then it would die again in another 3-4 minutes. This kept happening and I couldn't fix it.
I finally reverted firmware back to an older version and everything is working just fine now.
I have never had any issues with my RAX43 until today, when I got this new 1.0.12.120 firmware. It has some real problems.
Did you just revert to the old firmware and revert then factory reset? I just reverted but didn't factory reset yet.
Yes, first I tried a factory reset on the new version - did not work. Then I went back to the older version and another dfactory reset - did not work. Then I went back to the new version - did not work. Then I loaded my confg file from the new versio which previously workedbut not longer resored my Wi-Fi speed. Then I gave up!
I always reset to default settings, I upload the desired firmware, and I do another factory reset to the uploaded firmware.
