RAX120V1 Intermittently power cycling?
My RAX120 that I purchased around a month ago has suddenly started to "Turn off" leaving only the power LED on (blinking). During this item, all internet service is interrupted and after about a 1-minute wait the router resolves itself and resumes function.
I've been informed that there may be a BETA Firmware that resolves this issue. Any help would be appreciated!

- microchip8MasterHave you done a factory reset and configure from scratch? It might help.

Yeah, that was the first thing I opted to do. I've been trying to figure this issue out for the past few days and I was informed of a BETA Firmware that may resolve the issue that I can access from this forum via Reddit just a little while ago
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended.What is the first 3 characters of the routers serial number please.

1: I rolled back and used V1.2.3.28 in hopes of that resolving the issue, it did not. Currently using 1.2.8.40
2: Unfortunately I am not sure what "Mfr" means, the closest thing I see on the modem is "mfg" which states 06/21. The modem is provided by Spectrum and is Model Number "ET2251"
