RAX30 massivevfirmware leap
I have a RAX30 but with original firmware (V1.0.4.66_1) and would like to update. The problem is, they are/ were about 13 firmware updates since the router was launched and I've still got the earliest...
You can try it. If it doesn't work, then try it in a few at a time.
With that many changes, I would recommend a factory reset when you're all done.

A more subtle approach if one giant leap doesn't work is to try one half way between what you have and the latest.
Then repeat the "half way" approach until it sticks.
In the case of the RAX30, one big jump should be fine. Smaller steps can be needed when there is a big change in what the firmware does. That is what happened when the firmware was needed to move the mobile app from Genie to Nighthawk.
It can also be useful to reset before a big jump.
Just another user with time on their hands.
