  • I have not had a good experience with the RAX80,  it has been a waste of  money and time, in the end I have gone back to my fritzbox and CISCO wireless and UBNT wireless access points which are QA tested and just simply work.  Support have done nothing to be able to help and now the product is out of warrenty and has never really worked correctly.  Been a very disapointing experience and will be thinking twice before i purchase another netgear product or recomending it to others.

    Yup, return if you are within the return window and get from a different vendor.

    Netgear right now, IMHO has lost their way when it comes to firmware. They do not seem to address known problems and the QA of the firmware seems to be lacking. 

    There are folks on this forum that will not like this suggestion, just so you know.
