ditto, my RAX-200 when connected to my x6s extender is contantly blinking.
Are we leaving our network vulnerable?

were the **bleep** is new firmware
Please release a new firmware right away. When you push the WPS, the light constantly blinks and doesn't turn off. It leaves my network open to attack. Please fix this right away.

Hello Nighthawk Community,
Our engineering team is aware of an issue with the WPS LED light blinking on the RAX200. They are working on a fix but we currently do not have an ETA on the next firmware release.

Hi Chrisian,
Any update on the Firmware Update to stop the WPS light from constantly blinking?
Just to update, I turned off Smart Connect and have re-setup my router several times now, no change. The WPS light continues to blink. Please provide an update on when the Firmware Update will be made available to fix this issue.

Hopefully this issue will be fixed soon. Bought the RAX200 this week and had to use WPS to setup a printer, on the latest firmware 1.0.2.88 it will blink forever once pressed.
I did fix it temporily by downgrading to 1.0.1.12, this thankfully kept my settings and stopped the blinking. I then upgraded back to 1.0.2.88 and the blinking has stopped while still retaining all my settings. Can't press this again otherwise it will cause it to blink again. Seems this bug only occured since the 1.0.2.88 firmware.
Apart from that small issue I'm very happy with this router coming from the RX8000.
