I had/have the exact same experience.  Unfortunately, when I went back to 114, the problems (Wifi and Ethernet failing/disconnecting) were still there.   114 had been fairly stable for me, many weeks.  After twiddling/debugging 114 for a time, I went back to 118.  (If I'm going to spend my valuable time debugging issues, I'm going to do it on the latest release.)

On 118, I twiddled with the settings mentioned in this thread and the RAX80 thread.  When I got around to disabling QoS, there was NO Internet connectivity whatsoever, not even for a brief time.  I then re-enabled QoS and got connectivity back.  (This is where I'm at now as I compose this post.)

I don't understand how Netgear can allow this to happen.  Their customers have to concoct a "witches brew" of magic parameter combinations and settings JUST TO STAY CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET.  What works for some may not work for others.  I'm not talking about any of the fancy stuff.  I'm talking about direct Ethernet connections failing, requiring a reboot to get the packets flowing again.  Then, a few hours later (or less), the same thing.  (Yes.  I have a Wifi analyzer.  For the Wifi connections, I'm literally the only one on channel 153.  For a time, the speed dropped from 240Mbps down to just 25Mbps, without QoS enabled.  I was forced to re-enable it.)

This router (and the RAX80) fails its most basic job, connect my devices to the Internet, and keep them connected.

I'm embarrased to say how much I paid for this RAX120.  I've purchased another router (AC) for under $100.00, as a contingency.  I'm not purchasing another Netgear product.  I'm done.  This is just too much work for basic, consistent Internet connectivity.
