Nighthawk AX4 AX3000 Firmware upgrade failed
Hi, Over the weekend the automatic firmware upgrade for my AX3000 failed for some reason, now the router will not respond with just a flashing red led. I have followed the KB - https://kb.netgear.com/000064624/How-do-I-upload-firmware-to-my-NETGEAR-router-using-TFTP-on-Apple-macOS it looks like the firmware has been transferred to the router but does not seem to 'activate' into flash memory and after a reboot the router is back to a flashing red led. Any ideas? JohnR6700AX Drops Kindle Fire 10gen Internet Connection
Newly installed AX1800 Wifi6 R6700AX (latest software as of 04/13/24) connection to an Amazon Kindle Fire 9-10gen (OS 7.3.2.9) is unsuccessful or inconsistant. Either the Kindle continously cycles trying to connect to the router and bounces between "connecting" and "saved" with no connection. On other occasions, the Kindle does connect, but after a few minutes, drops the connection with the message "no internet" then after a minute reconnects, but will continously drop and reconnect. When I look at the Netgear app, it show the Kindle as a connected device although if I turn off the Kindle and do a refresh on the Netgear app, it still show up as a connected device. The issue stays the same whether SID is broadcasted or not. All other devices, Amazon TV, Roku TV and streaming stick, TCL TV, and cell phones all connect and work properly. If I replace the AX1800 with my old Netgear N300/WPR200 router, all works well, just slower. Note that I am using the same SID name, password and security encryption on both Netgear devices but only have had one online and powered on at the same time. If I go with the SID and password that came as the default for the Netgear AX1800 device, I have the same issue with my Kindle. Any ideas?AX5400 RAX50v2 Bridgeing
I just got the AX5400 a couple of hours ago. I specifically got it for the wireless bridging capabilities. There was nothing in the listing or on the packaging to indicate that this was the RAX50v2. I specifically got it from the Netgear section on Amazon. On the webpage for the wireless bridging I saw that RAX50v2 does have support for wireless bridging. Is my only option to return the router? Or are the they firmware compatible and I can reflash the RAX50v2 with the RAX50 firmware?
Security Setup for new Nighthawk AX4200
Hola Everyone, I am RLMsDumbLovr22 (Rebecca Lynn Millwards Dumb Lover). I am in need of some assistance in securing my new Nighthawk AX4200. Just purchased this a few weeks back. I am using it for work and need it secured. My wife and I had a different Netgear product, but that product is flawed and cheated too many times to forgive or redeem itself. There seems to be an obvious pattern of the product cheating while out of town and can. It's repetitive issue dates back even before the 2015 Ashley Madison leak, in which it was involved in. Everything/Everyone has flaws but, the worst part is this particular item won't admit its mistakes. I admit I have made mistakes and am flawed as well, but I am still wanting restoration. It took a little time and some professional help from alot of people who care too much to watch me blindly be #2, but the proof is there. Now this original product (est April 2011) changes identities online often as well as physical appearance in hopes of successfully deceiving. I would attach a picture of the original product, but I'm afraid it wouldn't help because it changed appearance often, in an attempt to throw off its scent to anyone looking for answers. Who would like to help out? Thanks #enjoy🖤Nighthawk RAX45 USB Storage Share Name keeps on reverting to \\RAX45\USB_Storage
I have a two bay USB drive connected to my RAX45. I use ReadySHARE->USB Storage (Basic Settings)->Edit to enter new share names. (See picture below) Things work fine until I reboot the router. After that, the \\RAX45\S_Drive gets changed to \\RAX45\USB_Storage. This has happened every time. I would have expected the router to remember the name. Is the name used here actually stored on the drive instead of the config data inside the router? I see older complains similar to this on this site. But the suggested solution there is to reboot the router.RAX48 Firmware Update - GUI language file is invalid
