RAX200 "Wings" don't click or snap into place?
Do the RAX200's "wings" really not snap or click into place? They seem to just sit there, unsecured. I followed the graphic on the stickers found on the wings.
Not the norm. Mine work as they should.
Ok, maybe YOURS is. Go look at some unboxing videos and video reviews.
I just bought this router (RAX200)
the wings fold into place then you push them down to lock them?
I hear no click whatsoever, in fact, there is a tiny 2mm gap around the wings when they are fully 'seated' which makes this look sloppy. I can see thru where the wings are supposed to meet the router body.
Can someone anyone confirm they are supposed to click in and lock? (or at least sit flush with the body?) $600 for this thing, it looks rather sloppy, is that a warranty item?
- It’s not really a click, but the wings definitely lock into place. There is a slight gap at the base of the wings. I guess it allows for the folding of the wings. My router is set high on shelve. The router works as it should though, so I happy with it.
So based on that description would THESE gaps be acceptable?
Seems this is as close to the body as they'll sit.
Did I get one that's out of design spec tolerances?

I can confirm my unit's wings do NOT lock into place. There is no clicking and locking in place. They just sit there with a gap all the way around them.
It looks absolutely sloppy for something that costs this much.
- Ok so I assume this is the best Netgear could do and everyones has an ugly & sloppy gap all the way around each wing. Im assuming if you return for another you'll get the same thing. Also assume if you raised it with Netgear (which I have) they'll just claim thats normal. Yuck. The aesthetics are ruined. Why go 99% of the way Netgear and stop short at the final detail? Ugh.
