RAX120 Router Random Disconnects
Hey everyone, I know that I'm not the only one with problems on the Nighthawk WiFi 6 devices, but thought I'd post my most recent headache. My hardware consists of a Motorola MB8600 DOCS 3.1 modem w/...
I haven't had an incident in over 24 hours, this may be fixed for me.
I updated to the 118 hot fix firmware and factory resetted the router.
I did not restore from backup, I simply took note of my configuration and manually re-applied it.
So far no issues.

I truly hope you guys have found a way to keep this thing running. Mine was a new purchase/install on Monday (3/9). The router came with .114 and had a DNS issue before I upgraded to .118. It had an issue on .118 before and after factory resets. It had an issue with .115 provided through this thread. I wasn't able to have any success, I tried mostly default settings with just a couple wired devices, I tried it setup the way I want with 50+ devices. I set it up the way netgear support wanted....everything I tried gave no joy. Believe, me, I tried everything I could and spend HOURS on this. I wanted it to work badly.
I noticed on one of your early threads support had you change to cloudflare and all was fine until you changed DNS.
Hope all goes well with your new router.
Hi everyone,
I've been also experincing the EXACT same issue. I've just been dealing with the DNS setting manually via direct on the OS level of the devices I can as a temporary fix. I've owned the router for over 6+ months without this issue and it just cropped early March 2020. I am currently on the .114 firmware, which I had upgraded from an older one hoping it would fix the issue. It did not. I have made no changes to my network or router or any new devices added in the past 3 months.
I'm hoping there is a solve soon, it's kinda crazy for something to crop up completely out of nowhere.
Please advise, I am willing to try beta firmwares but as I can see from the message thread - they don't seem to be working out too well.
Thanks all.
Still stable after factory reset, and adding back minimum configurations changes manually, not from backup. 3 days now but looks like when I enabled Telnet yesterday morning device rebooted, so its technically been rebooted once since my factory reset but not due to issue. Haven't had any udpates on my support case with netgear since I told them there was no point in my putting my device in AP Only mode.
