Same problem. My Nighthawk AX12 AX6000 is rebooting every 30-60 minutes when we're actively using the internet. However, when we're heavily using it, the CPU still only gets to 5% load.

I even had my internet company come out and our line is great. Modem stays up the entire time.
It's been happening for about a week.
Can I request the beta firmware as well?...

I don't think they are giving it out anymore. I believe they got the information they needed and now they are going to push it into an official update.

So was curious since you were given the beta...did this not work for you? Instructions were given to you on how to apply and setup the router for checking this. I've had many users tell me that this FW fixes the reboot issue. Sounds like you haven't tried the beta given or followed the instructions.
