Re: RAX 200 Firmware Update 1.0.2.98

I updated to this firmware and now my wifi is giving me incorrect wifi password errors. I did not change the wifi password and confirm it is correct in the router's settings menu. I'm also getting intermittent dropped internet connection as well with the new firmware update.

 

Had to switch back to my old Nighthawk X8 and it works fine without issues. Please help.

Re: RAX 200 Firmware Update 1.0.2.98

Ever since I updated to this firmware the Nighthawk app will not detect my router. It states “Router not supported.” I can connect with Anywhere Access using my WiFi. Also, I can’t access the router set-up page from any device. Nothing works. The router itself is working fine. Any help would be appreciated.

RAX 200 Firmware Update 1.0.2.98 has since been removed from the NG download page-the current download is the previous firmware 1.0.2.88 which I would recommend installing to help out in your situation-make sure to do a hard reset and reconfigure from scratch-do not use any saved configurations.

Re: RAX 200 Firmware Update 1.0.2.98-Now Restored on the RAX 200 NG Download Page

Currently NG has restored access to firmware version 1.0.2.98 for the RAX 200. Will test this "new" version to see if there are any fixes/improvements

Re: RAX 200 Firmware Update 1.0.2.98-Now Restored on the RAX 200 NG Download Page

Too quick on the trigger-the download link for the "new" 1.0.2.98 firmware for the RAX 200 does not work on the NG download page for the RAX 200. Any news on what is going on with RAX 200 firmware Christian?

Thank you, all. I will wait and see as I prefer not to roll back and lose my configuration. Please post if there is a resolution.
