You have the rax40?
What firmware version is on it?

"AX3000" is a speed, not a model number. Look for "Model" on the

there's 2 versions of the rax40.
If you have V2, the firmware you're on is the latest.
When you're checking on the support site, there's a drop down box to select between v1 and v2.
Your version matches the V2.
What error do you get whe you try to load the app?
Have you tried using a different dns provider?
You can try googles at 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4
or cloudfare at 1.1.1.1
