RAX200 Reboot and NO IP Address
I have an RAX200 WIFI router. Whenever I reboot my RAX200 and modem, I cannot get an IP Address for any of my devices. My PC will not reconnet and it says No Ethernet IP address. My phone will not...
Tried replacing the ethernet cord between the 2?
Who's your isp?
Cord replaced. ISP is Comcast/Xfinity.
Rebooted my router again. No IP address for any of my wireless items on my network when the router came back up.

Try downgrading the firmware on the router a version. Maybe its causing an issue with your seutp.
Bummer... that didn't help at all. Installed the previous 3 versions before 1.0.3.106... 1.0.3.102, 1.0.2.102 and 1.0.2.88 and kept getting the same "NO IP address" for any of my devices. To isolate everything else, connected my PC directly into my modem, bypassing the router, and it connected right up. I also picked up another router, a different brand, and my PC and devices all connected straight away. :smileysad:
2 things.
1. after changing firmware, did you try a factory reset?
2. You can select the 2.5g port as wan port from within the settings. Try that to see if its a bad port.
3. Or if that's not an option because you need the 2.5g port, if you go into the routers ip address/debug.htm (192.168.1.1/debug.htm) there's a wan port mirror to lan port 1 option. Try using that to mirror the lan port to wan port 1.
Try option 2-3 to see if its a bad ethernet port.
