Nighthawk® AX12 RAX120 Firmware Version V1.0.1.90

Nighthawk® AX12 RAX120 Firmware Version V1.0.1.90 Our office setup this router a few months ago and we are consistently seeing connectivity issues.  The issue seems to be the DHCP server freezing up...

It's an Arris SURFboard SB8200.  We just checked the RAX120 logs and it looks like the device flagged a 'DoS attack' attempt on one of our public facing ports.  In the meantime we closed that port to see if things improve.

sfed2600, 

 

Thanks for getting back. How has closing the port worked out over the weekend? Please send me a message with your contact info. I'd like for support to look into this further. 


Thanks,
Christian

    So far, the router has not needed a reboot since making the change.  Hopefully that was our issue, but we will continue to monitor.
