Also, the RAX devices were released before the AX spec was even finalized. meaning sometimes a firmware change actually caused old settings to have issues. So if there was issues after a firmware update, a good first step was to factory reset and do a clean install on them. By clean install, I mean not using a backup configuration. Has that been tried at all?

Thanks Plement for shining some light to this.
The deveces dropped one on 2.4GHz and two on 5GHz (one were a phone, S10+ that containning the RAX45 app.)
I don't recall firmware update by me. I will pay attention on next time if FW auto update.
