RAX120 loses both wired and wireless connection at midnight
Im usually asleep by midnight but sometimes stay up working on the computer or watching appletv. At exactly midnight, the wifi router stops working. Its not the cable modem, I can still watch regular...
It is not in the Nighthawk mobile app, you must use http://routerlogin.net which is the
router login admin page. After you login go to BASIC->Internet. Then you must
select Yes to the question, "Does your Internet connection require a login?". If you are
required to use a login, click Yes. Then scroll down to Connection Mode.
Check the Internet Port status - something similar happened to me earlier this week. After I lost connection to RAX120 I checked the status and all configuration values were 0'ed (zeroed out). After I hit RENEW they were repopulated and I gained my connectivity back.
See screenshot to find where to check CONNECTION STATUS.
Internet port reboot did not solve the problem. Anyone know if the device does some sort of update at midnight? It is highly suspicious that there is sort of timed settting since the internet connection is lost exactly at midnight. The connection comes back automatically after about 1 hour if left alone but I can get the internet connection back right away by reseting the router.
Check to make sure under internet settings that connection is set to always on.
turn off auto update.
I don't found that setting in my RAX120. Can you provide a screenshot of its location?
Thanks!
Go to internet settings, connection mode......always on.
