After experiencing the crashing for a while and posting about it, I had downgraded my router to firmware RAX40-V1.0.2.60_1.0.1 for a while to have a stable experience.
With the talk of a beta firmware I went ahead and upgraded again to 1.0.3.80 and opened a support case (on the last day of the window) to see if I could get a copy of the beta firmware but had no luck with that. Curiously though, it's been almost a month now with 1.0.3.80 again and so far I've had no issues with it.
No idea if the downgrade then later upgrade fixed the issue or if something about the wireless environment here has changed and caused it to be more stable. Recently I even bought a new Wifi 6 adapter for my pc to see if that might cause the crash (previously I had no Wifi6 devices yet) and still it's been a week or so with no issues.
