RAX40 dropping signal
Anyone else experiencing signal loss randomly with latest firmware? ISP is good, router works fine after reboot, but it's almost daily and sometimes twice a day. Running Firmware V1.0.3.80_1....
- I ended up swapping for an ASUS AX3000. This being the final straw, I have had multiple issues over the last year and change from SmartConnect not working at all to spontaneous reboots. I couldn’t go much more than a week without some sort of issue.
Reverting to an older firmware didn't really help much. Now i face other issues:
1. If i re-boot the router: there is no internet connection for 30 minutes
2. Takes >5 minutes to reboot
3. The devices it's connected to suddenly disconnect and then reconenct almost immediately - which is terrible when doing videocalls and day-trading.
Netgear should stop selling an half-baked product and refund the poor souls who bought this product.
In my guess, you didn't completely revert back to the older version firmware/
My layman suggestion:
1) Disconnect all the devices from router
2) Do the factoy reset, be patience in order to let this machine do it completetly & auomatically
3) Refresh the V64 firmware, be very very patience again.
Hope this can work!.
If problem insisted, do the same thing of me, buy a new Asus AX3000!
I tried all of that again, and it didn't work unfortunately. I guess I'm gonna have to go for the ASUS now. No issues with the Asus till now
