I am having the same issue with my RAX120. I tried the method suggested by israelrbb to no avail. Interestingly, I have Comcast as my ISP too and everything had been working well until before the Covid lockdown had started. I now get at least 3-4 resets a day that are detected.

Hey boojir01,
I actually did 4 firmware downgrades and 3 upgrades before it finally worked.
Downgraded .18 => reset with the pin, upgrade to .21
Dwongraded .14 => reset with the pin, upgrade to .21
Downgraded .08
Downgraded .05 => reset with a pin, upgrade to .21
Also I work for comcast what modem do you have?

Wow, quite elaborate! I guess I will have to try that.
My modem is the netgear CM1200. Its my personal modem. Funny thing is, I never had any issues with the setup until about mid March, similar to the other reports on this thread. I wonder if the increased demand has had anything to do with all this.

Did the multiple upgrades/downgrades and factory resets solve the problem? I am still having this issue and experiencing at least 3-4 restarts per day. Of course, as Murphy's law would have it, they seem to occur in the most inopportune times.

It worked for me, I had no issues what so ever ever since the last reset and upgrade.
