RAX120 repeatedly reboots
Router repeatedly reboots. Had FW 1.0.1.108 (i recall) and now 1.0.1.122 and still the same issue. Wrote a little perl script to ping the router and report when it is not where. I see that it goes...
I just bought a new RAX120v2 router and hooked it up yesterday. It has the latest firmware 1.2.1.22. All works great until it reboots about every hour! Drops all wifi connections and reboots. Nothing in the log ever says why it did the reboot. I have it connected to CentryLink DSL modem as the Internet source. I'll check the DHCP lease time on it tonight. I had the Nighthawk set with a static IP to the DSL modem as well, and now back to DHCP. It's very frustrating as I had a Nighthawk D7000 before without an issue. But if this new Router RAX120v2 has no fix for it rebooting every hour then it's going right back to Amazon.
Send it back. You'll never fix it. Netgear couldn't fix mine in over four months, including a replacement. Just my 2c.
Mine too, it reboots at random. I have plugged it sraight into the wall, factory reset it like 4 times and sent it back for a replacment. got the new replacment and same story it too reboots. but today got a firmware update V1.2.2.24 lets see if this works. otherwise I will send this back and get a completley different model/Brand.
I just renerned the new same model Router as it too did the same.
I purchased a different model.
