RAX120v2 Wifi signal keeps dropping
Hi, my wifi signal keeps dropping almost every day and requires constant rebooting. The problem is not with the modem. Please help. Thanks, Phil

That is not a reliable guide. The app seems to miss some updates, especially if you are several versions behind.
The only way to really check is to look at the firmware version ans to compare that with the versions available on the support pages for your device.
Visit the support pages:
Support | NETGEAR
Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.
That page will also have any software, firmware and drivers for your device, if they exist.
As to your modem, Google isn't definitive. Probably just a modem, but does it have extra LAN ports on the back? Does it do wifi?
