RAX40 Firmware 1.0.3.80 Crash/Bug Log
Hello folks, can everyone please log all the issues they are experiencing with the RAX40 router on 1.0.3.80 firmware under this thread, I see there are several threads going on about the issue, figur...
I can roll back to previous version but that has its own issues minly with access control
Conclusion to all this. Stay away from netgear. Plenty of other brands out there rated high
This is frustrating,
I have been trying to get RAX 40 firmware .80 to be stable for several weeks and today I downgraded to .64, hoping for the best.
- I have re-started router numerous times, on the worst days at least three restarts.
- Set router back to factory setting twice.
- Disconnected devices one by one.
- Spent hours on the phone with AppleCare tech support.
- Running Apple wireless diagnostic tool in the background generated many logs sent to Apple. Apple says the problem is in the router.
I am hoping for a fix soon.
The router has been stable for over 24 hours after the rollback to FM .64. Wondering if Netgear has ackkowledged the problem because the Nighthawk app and the webapp are still offering to update (or break) the router, see screenshot.
I turned off the auto update function from the router configuration, just got to live with this for a while.
