May I please get access to the latest beta firmware for my RAX120 router? I too am plagued by constant random reboots.
- beachmilesMay 17, 2022ApprenticeI haven't heard of any beta firmware actually fixing the problem. I thought I had it fixed when I changed my UPS to pure sine wave but the random reboots ending coming back (although less often). Only disabling the 2.4ghz WMM QOS makes this router fairly stable at the expense of much slower dummed down 2.4ghz wifi.
