Nighthawk RAX43 WiFi not functioning
Not sure why after a power cycle suddenly my RAX43 wifi is not working.
Tried reset now I cant even join the NETGEAR wifi network.
Its not detecting.
On webpage routerlogin i can see the wireless has some yellow mark.
But could not figure out the issue.
Connecting the ethernet allows me to connect to internet.
Did a factory reset prior but not successful too.
However, manage to sort out by reinstalling a 2020 firmware. Then updating it back to the latest firmware. Now the wifi is working and configureable. As can be seen on the pic, the lights for 2.4 and 5.0 are not lighting up. I even reinstall the firmware to one version earlier but same issue persist. Thus, decided to install the very first firmware available.
Thanks.

They seem to have got the latest FW loaded after going back to a 2020 version then coming back up to most current version. Passing everything in between.
Have a chat with your cat.
There is a button on the RAX43 allowing to disable and enable WiFi:
Button already turned on with light.
Settings for Enable Wireless Router Radio also checked.
Try a factory reset and setup from scratch?
