RAX120 keeps offline
Router Firmware Version V1.0.1.122
I try to reboot, factory reset, turn it off and turn back on after half an hour, update to the latest firmware
I called my internet provider 5 times to make sure there is nothing wrong with my line and NBN router modem. I even bought 3 different brand internet cable cat 6 cat 7 and cat 8 to do the test, the problem still there.
The router itself is warm, and the fan never run, now my router is still in hardware warranty, but my three month support is expired. I couldn’t even talk to support team, they just want more money. That is so bad. I have no ideal what should I do now.
Also I saw lot of people have this problem, and it wasn’t getting fixed, I don’t know, it is getting worse right now(offline issue). I’m so angry. Paid $600 for garbage.

Be specific. We aren't there to see whats happening, what you're doing, your setup, or even how you're attempting to access it.

thank you for your respond, could you please help me how could I return or replace my router without talking to support team-----You have to go through support to replace it. Potentially you could return it where you bought it from but that'd be dependant on their return policy

Phone app shows me offline, all my wifi and cable connection is no internet, router websites shows me no internet connection. I have to rebot to get internet back on
Modem is NBN modem hybrid fibre coaxial (HFC)
So it is random offline, router itself is lost connection, I went to app router setting, then internet port. shows me no External ip address, no gatway ip address, no subnet mask, no dns server all 0.0.0.0, I have to reboot router to get all those back to normal- michaelkenwardAug 10, 2020Guru - Experienced User

We are none the wiser when it comes to knowing what this modem is.
That tells us about the technology, not the make and model.
