RAXE500. RAXE300 should same as it should same code base.
I could have. I've only had my RAXE500 for about 2 years.
Something you could do, install a small non managed Gb switch in between the host ISP service device and the RAX router. Don't connect anything else do this switch accept the ISP modem and the RAXE router. Then you'd have some LED indication. Could install a semi managed or managed switch here and let the switch help log any oddities or network traffic issues if you really wanna dive in.
