RAX48 Hangs

Actually an RAX48. About 3 days ago it started hanging every 2 or 3 hours. To fix I would pull the plug and reboot. After applying Firmware update V1.0.5.106_2.0.70. It kept hanging at about 8 hours.

I found this message in the log..."[DoS attack: RST Scan] from source 23.45.39.193,port 443 Sunday, Feb 13, 2022 15:26:09"

Could this be the problem? Is there anyway to stop this from happening?

  • Have to do a whois lookup on that IP address to see where it's coming from...

     

    Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and router been performed since last update?
    Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
    Turn off and unplug modem.
    Turn off router and computers.
    Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
    Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
    Turn on computers and rest of network.

     

    A factory reset maybe needed.

      RAX48 -

      I did all that early on. I am going to do that again since the first time it was before the router update.
