RAX40 dropping internet connection
It seems the router drops internet connection quite randomly. Modem.router does have internet access, so problem is due to the RAX40. 2nd item. It seems that multicast UDP is not supported how can i...
Same here. My RAX40's WIFI is no longer connecting to internet since 9 May 2020. But my app in mobile remote access to the router and stated that the network is fne, with speed test. So i believe there is error in RAX40's WIFI purely. I didn't try factory reset as I want to make sure this is the last resort. Is it about the fireware v1.0.3.64_1.0.1?
Finally my problem is solved by pressing factory reset (using a needle) over A MINUTE. Pressing for one second just reboot the router but pressing as long as possible (i guess i have pressed it over a minute) will actually reset to default.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
wifi dropping randomly, having to reboot once a day... searched for solutions, finally saw a forum where it recommended dropping back to Firmware V1.0.1.41_1.0.1 so I did that. Seems to have done the trick... hope this helps others with the same issue.

Seven seconds. You only need to hold the reset button for 7 seconds to do a factory reset.
