RAX120 V2 Constant Random Reboots
The router reboots frequently sometimes every 30 minutes. I have noticed that the router reboots under heavy system load of +50% on the processor. The only way I have been able to drastically lesse...
- Installed beta firmware 1.2.3.33 on it and then turn fan on in debug.htm. Just check mark it , don’t click on apply.
And bought a cool pad from amazon $10 . 4 days in a row no restart and router works perfect.

The beta firmware didn't work and Netgear keeps endlessly "troubleshooting" but won't RMA it. I've opened up a case with the Massachusetts Consumer Protection agency and am going to take them to small claims court to get my damn money back since they won't refund or replace it.
Jesus - Netgear NEVER again.
I have the same experience.
Either the latest firmware or the beta firmware cannot fix the reboot issue.
I'm not sure if it's a reboot because the internet connection was dropped and all LEDs except the Power are off. I will have to power off and then power it on again to reboot it to bring back the connection. This is so annoyed considering I spend the amount of money for the RAX120v2.
