Cax80 keeps dropping internet connection
Recently purchased Nighthawk CAX80. Never had problems w/ my internet connection before hooking up the Cax80. For last 2 wks since my Cax80 has been connected, im getting disconnected like every 20 mi...
I don't see a resolution to this issue. Did you get a resolution through a support ticket?
Are you having problems with your CAX80?
Does the entire CAX80 loose internet or just wirless?
Have the ISP check the single on the service line up to the modem.
Be sure there are no coax line splitters in between the modem and ISP service box.
Be sure your using good quality RG6 coax cable.

Hi,
My Gateway: Nighthawk CAX80, FW V1.1.0.41 - just bought less than 7 days ago.
I am having the same, if not a similar, issue where I get the "connected, no internet" message. I primarily see this on mobile device. But end rebooting the CAX80. This is only impacting the wifi connection as I am hard wired to my work laptop with no issues. I am using a RG6 coax cable. I do not have any splitters, etc.
At the time where I re-attempted to connect to the wifi with the mobile phone I see this in the log;
(I replaced numbers with #)
[DHCP IP: 192.###.#.##] to MAC address dc:bf:e9:a4:eb:2c 1 Tue Sep 22 08:08:22 2020 192.168.1.43:0 0.0.0.0:0 When the CAX80 works as expected it performs well, but I need to try and resolve this before my return window closes. I have reset to defaults twice in the last few days.
Thanks
Have the ISP check the signal and line quality UP to the modem.
Be sure there are no coax cable line splitters in the between the modem and ISP service box.
Be sure your using good quality RG6 coax cable up to the modem.
Be sure to power OFF the modem for 1 minute them back ON.
