RAX120 - Using AX Crashes Router
I recently got a new computer with Wifi 6 capabilities which uses the Intel AX201 module. At first I thought it was the motherobard, however I noticed that the router disconnects completely while playing Valorant for an hour or so.
The router crashes and completely reboots. I don't know if I haven't done enough testing, but this seems to only be happening when I am playing Valorant but not while I am browsing the web. I assume it has something to do with the AX mode
I am currently on firmware: V1.0.1.122

Hello inspriing,
When you notice the router crashing while playing Valorant on your computer, are you able to access the internet with another device on the network?

After I reset the router, I noticed it stopped crashing. Before it would some reason crash and then I could not connect on either devices.
