CAX 80 Reboot SSID Changed
CAX80 rebooted sometime last night and suddenly SSID changed to a different name. Spectrum probably dropped (still having slowness issues) and caused the reboot. Anyone experience this before? ...

It didn't default back to the original SSID which I never changed OOB but to a completely different SSID.
It is on FW 2.1.1.4 (which is the latest i think)
I think its just a glitch but kind of disconcerting. It's been pretty stable until this event.

I had same issue. New FW has been released to 2.1.2.6. Solved my problem but, new problem is the backup doesn't either capture or restore everything. Different results with every backup. Cannot get backup/restore to restore Device names though.

Factory reset the CAX and then setup from scratch. After you have set up the CAX, save off a new backup configuration to file.

I don't have access to actual case #s
So after the reset and setup from scratch and saving off a new config, a restore still dosen't work well?
Keep in contact with NG support.
