What exact issue are you getting? Details are key.
What firmware is on them?
What gateway/modem are they connected to?
If its for a customer, unless you're on some pretty slow dsl, I wouldn't be recommending the R6080. Its a pretty base model device and not gigabit.

This has nothing to do with network equipment, strictly firmware as error 403 is an error from the web server and is immediate upon hitting the apply button, but since you asked upstream are all Cambium radios.
Setting attempted where fixed IP and DNS servers
Only happens with AC 1000, two have been in service (previously programmed without incident) and one was brand new. Had customer purchase AC 1200 ….. no problems.
There are numerous posts about this probem, just google ‘AC 1000 error 403’
Tried latest firmware and downgrades.
None of the posted fixes worked for me
This is the type of thing that made me give up on Linksys years ago.
Anyone that is not in a hurry for a router gets my recommendation for another brand. (hint 4 lettters)
