RAX40 Firmware 1.0.3.80 Crash/Bug Log
Hello folks, can everyone please log all the issues they are experiencing with the RAX40 router on 1.0.3.80 firmware under this thread, I see there are several threads going on about the issue, figur...
I have it working, although I can't tell anyone that it was either pleasant or easy. I have RAX40 in AP mode.
I rolled it back and it worked.
I rolled it forward and it stopped working - again.
I did a factory reset.
I rolled it back.
I did another factory reset.
I rolled it forward.
It started working on the latest firmware.
I think that's a lot of effort for this router - it's incredibly frustrating and disappointing. I think Netgear should pull the new firmware until it gets it right. And Netgear should offer free support to anyone with a RAX40 who is out of time in terms of warranty.
I wish the same, they should offer free support to clean up the mess created by them.
- I followed the directions to factory reset several times, that didn’t help. My router is dead, doesn’t communicate with anything.
- I’m going with a surfboard ax 11000. Hope it works nice
Did you plug in directly? Once I did the factory reset I was able to get in using default logins and a direct ethernet connection. I rolled back the firmware and everything is fine again. I also turned off auto-updates.
