RAX200 NTP Time Frozen
Anyone else have a frozen time and date in the NTP time section? Mine is frozen on Monday the 3rd at 0930 when I did the .98 FW update. I always do a paper clip reset after an update but for some r...
Hi Synomenon,
Does the issue persist when reverting back to the previous firmware version?

Reverting firmware to v1.0.2.88_1.0.50 fixed the time zone setting. It now stays on Pacific time AND the checkbox to automatically adjust for daylight savings time stays checked.
I'll have to stay on this firmware for awhile to see if I still get the issue where the RAX200 will randomly lose its connection with the modem (LED on the internet connection light turning orange as well) requiring a factory reset to fix (I had experienced this issue with v1.0.2.98_1.0.54 and the version before it).
I have factory reset three times, and downgraded the firmware. The date and time is currently correct but only certin devices/services are working on the network.
Some devices I can't go to webpages but I can remote into to them(Anydesk) or a service like battle.net connects at start. I can play games but again, webpages fail to load. I am guessing it is still some issue with the NTP.
Currently on V1.0.2.88_1.0.50.Hi,
I confirm that reverting back to v1.0.2.88_1.0.50 fixed the time zone setting and the date/time freeze. It is quite unbelievable that even a simple date/time function on the router does not work anymore after a firmware upgrade. How confident to be on complex security functions the router is supposed to provide? I've been dealing with both Netgear and Bitdefender support for a month now to get Armor activated on the router after I bought a subscription.
I hope this type of things can be fixed quickly.
Currently I have this:
Hardware Version RAX200 Firmware Version V1.0.2.98_1.0.54 GUI Language Version V1.0.2.98_2.1.46.1 The time issue and the constant Network drops are terrible - I may move away from Netgear products based on these recent experiences. Any ideas as to when the next firmware will be released with these fixes?
My wife and I work from home with 2 kids doing remote learning - when the router stops working it is really disruptive.
Thoughts?
New firmware out today-manual download not available. Install via the web gui or the nighthawk app.
