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 ...
I have been with RAX40 for just over a month now. Unreliable from the start. I ended up turning off every feature possible so I was running just with the 2.4 Ghz channel and no AX. I still have drop outs from various devices and even found the routers DNS service to be unreliable. The upgrade to V1.0.3.80_1.0.1 has made no difference to the bad performance. Had two calls with NETGEAR but no fix achieved. I'm so tempted to go back to my old TP-LINK router. Does NETGEAR ever acknowledge they have a problem with their product?
No more 1.0.3.80 firmware proposed through the NightAwk app' :-) perhaps too much bugs !
the last one is now v1.0.3.64_1.0.1 (for France)
Please Netgear take time to do a good job and that we obtain an entire functionnal system with all you promised !
Thanks.
Regards.
I had to send in my RAX40 after the firmware update since it was bricked and now they pull the firmware. Is Netgear going to refund my 17 bucks in shipping I spent to send them and get sent a new device for a mistake they obviously made? Probably not since they "Take no responsiblity at all." Last Netgear product I buy. Absolute rubbish.
The 1.03.80 firmware is back on update... who wants to try it ?....
I do not prefer (same name, same problems?)
Hello,
if there were fixes, name of this "BAD-FIRM" would have been changed. That's how it was handled in different companies where I worked...

So I'll will not test this f/w ... I bet this is the same piece of sh--beep--
