RAX200 - Allowed Device Table Corrupted?

Since you factory reset and setup from scratch, now save off a new backup config to file for safe keeping. I would use MS Edge or Firefox for this.

One entry seems to be missing the check box that would allow changes to be made to a device. Is there a way to repair this table, short of returning the router back to FACTORY DEFAULTS and manually rebuilding the list of allowed devices? SEE ATTACH PICTURE OF THIS ISSUE.
Device Hardware Version: RAX200
Firmware Version: V1.0.6.138_1.0.76

If you saved off a backup configuration file, you could try to restore it after a firmware default reset and hope it does not bring in the corrupted information. If not, the reset is your only option.
Best practice lesson learned. On a routine basis, save off a backup copy of the configuration file.
Sorry for the very slow response, and thank you for your input. I tried creating a configuration back-up and then resetting the router to factory defaults and then reloading the configuration. Then information that was reloaded also appeared to be slightly corrupt, having a bunch of non-alpha character in descriptions and the like. I wound up just going to factory defaults and re-entering information. It actually allowed me to clean out a number of allowed users who I had allowed access in the past, so not all was lost. The table seems to be just fine now. Thanks for you input...... John
