RAX120 - Using AX Crashes Router

I recently got a new computer with Wifi 6 capabilities which uses the Intel AX201 module. At first I thought it was the motherobard, however I noticed that the router disconnects completely while playing Valorant for an hour or so.

 

The router crashes and completely reboots. I don't know if I haven't done enough testing, but this seems to only be happening when I am playing Valorant but not while I am browsing the web. I assume it has something to do with the AX mode 

 

I am currently on firmware: V1.0.1.122 

Model: RAX120|Nighthawk AX12 12-Stream WiFi Router

Hello inspriing, 

 

When you notice the router crashing while playing Valorant on your computer, are you able to access the internet with another device on the network?

After I reset the router, I noticed it stopped crashing. Before it would some reason crash and then I could not connect on either devices.
