Terrible WiFi with RAX12 after switching off Xfinity AP
I deciced to replace the AP on my Comcast XB6 with the RAX120. Everything went great at first! I was hitting 870+ Mbps on WiFi 6 and 600-700 on 802.11 AC devices. Latency was low and legacy device...
Sorry, not understanding your actual configuration.
Are you running both the XB6 and the RAX120 in router mode and are they situated near each other?
I have the same 2 devices and I tested the following two configurations:
1) XB6 in Router Mode w/WiFi off and the RAX120 in AP Mode
2) XB6 in Bridge Mode and RAX in Router Mode
I ended up using the configuration #2, but both configurations worked. I also hard reset the RAX120 when the firmware was updated.
Not running as many devices and have 3 AX capable iPhones.

How did you get bridge mode working? I tried twice and the XB6 and RAX don't seem to negotiate the settings.
Although, at this point I don't trust the RAX to be using it as a router and the only AP. I'm keeping an SSID open on the XB6 as an emergency fallback.
