RAX35 not reliable, even when going back to firmware 1.0.3.62
It is written in the Community forum of Netgear that the latest firmware 1.0. 3.80 of my RAX35 causes problems, but it was OK for me for the last 2 months (since I bought it) ... 'til yesterday eveni...

I gave another try this evening, doing another FACTORY RESET while using version 62 this time: everything's working fine now, I mean, I'm able to rename my SSID + internet is now working.
I'm still puzzled why my RAX35 stopped working properly yesterday evening with version 80 after 2 months without any major problem : the browser was asking a Nighthawk authorization password or something like that + WI-FI/Internet was not available constantly (with the globe notification appearing once a while at the bottom right of Windows 10)?!
Will keep you informed if it endures our daily tech life with version 1.0.3.62. -- Jean.

Was hoping to find some progress regarding this firmware problem :-( Looks like there's nothing new regarding this matter.
Just want to let know to all of you that everything has been working smothly with version 62 pour the past 6 weeks after downgrading from version 80: no problem at all. I disabled the automatic firmware update so I can stay with this present stable version 62. I'm certainly not interested in installing version 80, and am hoping for a new firmware version.
I noticed with version 80 the WPA3 Wi-Fi security protocol: this WPA3 option is not available with the firmware version 62.
