RAX120 No 2.4ghz
Arrived home today and noticed a few connected devices flashing red lights at me. After a little research, realized the router is no longer broadcasting the 2.4ghz band. 5ghz is still up and working....

Try a 30-30-30 reset on the router.

If this fails, one could just disable the radio fully with in the router and install a 2.4Ghz wireless AP wired to the RAX router so you could continue using the RAX other working features.

The 2.4 ghz light is on and blinking on the unit. I have tried simply rebooting, updating firmware to the latest (1.2.9.52), factory reset, nothing has made it come back. The unit is definitely outside of the warranty period... Any other things to try before I start shopping?
