Losing DNS on ethernet
Keeps losing DNS with latest firmware, rolling back to RAX200-V1.0.5.132_1.0.69. Have done a factory reset and still had the issues. Please fix the firmware, for I do like my nighthawk.

Re: Losing DNS on ethernet
What do you mean by losing DNS?
What's happening exactly?
What devices are connected?
Happens on all devices?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended.

Re: Losing DNS on ethernet
Might be something on the ISP side as the defaults are the ISP's servers.
Try a different DNS Server. Here's a few. Also remember to change the ipv6 dns server if ipv6 is enabled.
CloudFlare
IPv4: 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1
IPv6: 2606:4700:4700:0:0:0:0:1111 and 2606:4700:4700:0:0:0:0:1001
GoogleDNS
IPv4: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
IPv6: 2001:4860:4860:0:0:0:0:8888 and 2001:4860:4860:0:0:0:0:8844
also in AP setup: RAXE500->EAX80
1.4gig download/50mbps upload from Xfinity

Re: Losing DNS on ethernet
2 computer that are connected via ethernet wont find the internet, they connect to the router but no dns. Router sees them connected. Meanwhile phones seen on wifi can access web.
A full reset gets the ports working but then becomes intermittent on the ethernet. In the past been fine.
