RAX43 autoupdated firmware, changed SSIDs, and now wifi is very sporadic

Last night  my RAX43 did some sort of auto-update/factory reset, which put my SSIDs back to factory defaults.  I fixed that, reconnected wifi, but now the problem is the wifi signal keeps cutting out...

Seems to also be impacting the RAX50 as well.

 

Best to do a factory reset and and set up from scratch.to rule out any potential for issues given how this update is behaving for some users.

    My RAX43 did a factory reset last night because it auto updated to new firmware, which then screwed everything up. I had to revert to older firmware, and then disable Autoupdate so this doesn't happen again.
