RAX120 Attached Devices Not Showing All Devices
Firmware Version 1.0.1.122 does not show all of the active devices on my network. I downgraded to 1.0.1.118 and everything shows up. In 122, it does not show my work laptop, running Windows 10, but c...

Just to add - same here. But out of nowhere. I has latest FW running for a bit, but the last time channel changed, attached devices is showing blank on the webpage. On the app, I see a (stale?) list, but no more 5Ghz/2.4Ghz badges. Tried restart, but don't want to go through the hassle or factory reset (and for a released firmware, I expect that not to be neccessary). Pretty frustrating...

RAX120 firmware 1.0.1.128 (see here) claims to fix a problem “where the Nighthawk app does not display devices in attached device list,” and thus might assist with the issue discussed in this thread.

1.0.1.128 fixes that issue but now gives me DFS vhannels on HT80 which then vanish, also if you reset there is no set up screen for the browser as per usual, also mine and a friends 120 first rejected our ISP password, then could not fine the connection. Finally it all worked. Then I want from channel 100 to 36 with no radar waning in the logs. So far a buggy update with a security fix, great router but all this horsepower, ram and flash NAND and for myself great wifi but no Dynamic QoS, infact QoS on makes upstream connections worse and no stand out features. <sigh> I feel Netgear need an audit like asus had to shake them up on security and maybe some fresh engineers with new ideas in hardware and software design. Asus seem to be pulling a head in AX router design and definately in feature sets.

Buggy firmware update. So far, it is worse than the previous one 1.0.1.122.
1. slowed wireless internet speed.
2. QoS is available for upstream, but does not make sense anymore with high internet gigabit speeds.
3. readycloud still not working , either with phone apps, or web-based browser.
I might have to reverse back to 1.0.1.122 , after another trial with reset the router, reconfigure set-up and if the aboved mention issues are still persist,.

QoS has never worked on this router sadly, the GUI has been changed but QoS is not needed on devices over 300Mbps really. Also be aware this version patches a security vulnerability. Onc factorye set reset mine seems fine, still using DFS on HT80. No speed issues for myself on this firmware after a factory reset. Using wifi sweetspots im getting 655Mbps on 5Ghz ac devices. Its not a perfect piece of firmware, netgear are im my view going downhill software wise but like most AX devices a factory reset solves most things.
