Take it back!
It's a modified version of RAX80. "PIECE of JUNK!" I know because I bought the same one you have. I took it back. I went to Best Buy and bought Netgear's top of the line RAX200. Save youself some frustration, return it. Good Luck...

Everytime my laptops or desktops at home wake up from sleep, they connect back to 5G network successfully but in 50% cases, it says "no interent connection". Of course, one would first expect laptop/desktop has driver issues but since this is happening with all the machines at home, I am now convinced it is a Router issues. This issue goes away 100% of the time when I reboot the router and 80% of the router when I switch my wifi on/off on my machine.
I was hoping this issue will go away with latest firmware update but that is not the case here. Before I return this back to Costco, wanted to just check if there is a quick fix for it.
