Rax120 Reset
I have a Rax 120 that is running .118 firmware. Last night it just rebooted and reset itself all by itself. Has this happened to anyone else running this firmware?

This same thing just happened to my AX12 RAX120. Everything seemed to be working and then all of a sudden our internet went out. I restarted our modem/router and then when the router came back up all settings were erased, even our SSID for our WiFi and admin login.
Over the past week or two our router has been acting strange, but I thought it was because I recently started using the Netgear EX7500-100NAS extender. But now I'm not sure the EX7500 extender is the issue. I'm going to install the most recent firmware release V1.0.1.118 to see if that improves the issues. It would have been nice if Netgear would have sent out a notification with the most recent firmware release. When you try to detect any new firmware updates through the admin portal this firmware update doesn't even show up.

It's a hot fix hence why it fails to pickup on an update check. It just pays to keep an eye on the page say once a week to see what's new if anything.
i would reset once you have installed and setup as new.
