RAX40 Wifi Connection Issues with Multiple Devices from Various Manufacturers
I got a RAX40 last month and have had issues since i opened the box. I am running the unit in Access Point (AP) mode. List of issues: With 1.0.2.46 firmware I was not able to use a WPA2 password ...

Get the same error, purchased RAX40 three months ago, and all devices continues to drop wifi connection several times in a week. When the problem occurs, wifi signal seems totally disappear and can't be searched. Had to restart the whole router, but wifi configs will get back to factory settings after restart. To be honest RAX40's firmware is totally a nightmare. RAX40 doesn't look like a netgear product at all.

Hello windmgc,
Welcome to the community! May you try enabling/disabling AX to see if there are any improvements.
Thanks,
Christian

Hello,
just to share :
I also have many issues with my RAX40 using Firmware Version V1.0.3.64_1.0.1 here in France
- 5G wifi not working after some time
- some devices can't connect >>> reboot fixes
- hangs of whole RAX40
- reset to factory defaults w/o any action
I joined support who asked for monney and I payed for NOTHING!
This product too young is full of bugs.
Best regards.
