RAX48 - Air Play Freezes
Purchased a RAX48 router upgrading from a 7400 AC2600.
Airplay from my iPad to a Windows 10 laptop freezes. Laptop is wire connected and iPad on wifi.
Support had me adjust channels from Auto to 11 and it made things worse.
Have about 20 devices no issues just this Air Play problem. It works on the old router.

Is the ipad connected to the 2.4ghz or the 5ghz?
What modem/gateway do you have?
what firmware is on the router?
- RugershooterAspirantAppreciate you looking to help.
Firmware: 1.0.4.100
Modem: Netgear CM700
I will check the wifi. - RugershooterAspirantConnecting with 5ghz
The RAX devices firmware has been changing significantly.
Have you tried downgrading a version, then do a factory reset/reinstall.
Then disable auto updates.
See if maybe its the newer firmware causing the issue
