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've made a mistake buying this router. I'm glad it's working fine for now and thankfully I had the sense to save the last firmware file with a working config (with many of the features disabled). It took them 6 months to come up with a fix and then refer to a deleted firmware to revert to, if one wants some basic features.
The most troubling bit is the future support. I wonder if they are going to just stop security updates or take 6+ months to provide any security fixes. Will not be buying any netgear products again after watching this dumpster fire of a brand.
Beta 83 works okay and the only reason some of us got this beta is that we made enough noise.
Now I'd say we all deserved the v2 and we should make RMA requests to receive the v2. Has anyone contacted Netgear for replacing v1 for a v2?
I started having issues with the new beta firmware 83_1.0.10. For the past couple days the internet connection has not been very stable with wifi dropouts, certain wifi devices like the smart tvs dropping connection and not being able to reconnect, requiring a whole power recycle almost everyday again. I contacted my customer service now that Netgear has a new hardware version for the RAX40, I asked to get a replacement to the Rax40v2. Let's see what they say
- Damn that sucks that you’re now having issues with the beta. Keep us updated on how it goes with your support rep regarding the v2.
