rax80 wifi drop once per day

Hi. I have netgear rax 80. It was running for 75 days with the previous firmware v1.0.3.88 with no problems at all, until a few days ago when I upgraded the firmware to v1.0.3.98. Over the past few days the wifi on both 2.4ghz and 5ghz bands drop out completely after about 18-20 hours of use. I could log into the router over Ethernet and see the internet connection was online but the wifi was down. Once I rebooted the router everything was fine until 18-20 hours later when I had to repeat this process. I have my Wifi region set to Australia and in the latest firmware release notes there was an unrelated issue that was fixed so maybe this could be related to that. I have now downgraded my firmware back to v1.0.3.88. Can this issue be reported to the support team?

  • One thing you can try next time is a factory reset. Its usually the first step if there's issues after a firmware upgrade.
