Netgear should take back these routers and refund everyone.. this is such a criminal act to sell a product with faulty firmware and then expect people to pay for a support/service plan for them to do anything about it.

I had my first issue with firmware version 1.0.3.62. On my Wifi-6 Galaxy phone, the internet began to run choppy then sites failed to load. Finally I lost connection to the router and the phone would no longer reconnect to the router over 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz getting a unable to obtain IP address error. All of my other Wifi devices are not Wifi-6 and didn't have any connection issues. I decided to disable AX on the router and reboot. Now my phone connects to router once again but not using Wifi-6. I also had similar issues with AX when I was using firmware version 1.0.3.80.

ridiculous that you'd need to be disabling a feature which was touted by the marketing of the router in order for it to provide even the basic level of networking capabilities....
