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.

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...

Took a chance to pressure my ISP who recommended me this crappy router during recontract as an 'upgrade', they
gave me this unofficial version from Netgear support "V1.0.3.80_1.0.8" due to too many customer complains. For god's sake
I upgraded with it and within 2 hours the wifi disconnected at least 5-6 times. Netgear is just using us to test their firmware.
