Ok 5-23 I decided to have another go at 6.138 and this are my findings in my case:
did the upgrade and then factory reset, after that turn of and unplugged the router and modem and turn off PC
turn on following the procedure posted before and everything seem to be working fine until I activated the DDNS service and the VPN service, that's when it went back to could connect but no internet. I usually configured the VPN to access local network only but for some reason it blocks the whole router internet connectivity, configured to allow local network and internet and voila everything is working fine. another thin worth noting is that under Advanced- Security- schedule for some reason everything is selected to block connection for everyday 24hours I unchecked all of them and so far everything is working flawless
you may need to factory reset after upgrading to the latest firmware.

I updated the firmware of RAX80 router to v1.06.138 and the router failed to access the internet. I reinstall firmware v1.0.5.132 and the problem is solved.
Grateful if Netgear can note and solve the issue.
Regards,
1. after the upgrade and issue, did you try a factory reset? if there's issues after an update, that's one of the first recommended steps.
2. what modem/gateway is it connected to?
3. do you have ipv6 enabled?
1. yes I did 2 Factory resets and still no internet connectivity, my devices said connected without internet
2. I'm connected to the spectrum Modem I think is Technicolor ET2251
3. yes I have ipv6 enabled
Hope this help troubleshoot the issue
Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and router been performed since last update?
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
Turn off and unplug modem.
Turn off router and computers.
Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
Turn on computers and rest of network.

Same here auto update from 1.0.5.132 to 1.0.6.138 resulted in multiple issues with no name resolving. I did not notice it right away as my 2nd pc has a fixed ip number and dns setting. I have disable auto-update now.
