RAX80 Unstable 5ghz WiFi
I have a lot of issues with RAX80 especially with 5Ghz band. When I turn it on the first 15-20 minutes everything is okay, after that the router gets warm and 5Ghz start to disconnect and reconnect, ...
And sorry to say reading all the reviews this old AX firmware in all AX routers is having issues with AX speeds.
No it`s your stuff not theirs they all say. B>S>. I read some even thinking of bringing a class action lawsuit in this forum.
$600 routers under performing what> yep read it ihere in the forums.
Having support telling you to change this or that and finally back again and if that doesn't work, they tell you to load an older version of the firmware and then it's a new card game. It's all Deja-vu...
I have been using Netgear routers and switches for years and they have always lived up to their specifications, and they were dependable. Not so with The RAX80. I've just returned the 2nd replacement and purchased an AX router from another manufacturer. It has been running for two days, now. After configuration, there has not been a peep, hiccup, or misfire. The difference in stability and coverage between this new router and the RAX80 is like night from day. In addition, I have a collection of Wi-Fi analysis tools, and graphically, the difference is enormous.
Friends should not let friends buy RAX80s.
