Model: Netgear Nighthawk AX12 RAX 120v2 Firmware: 1.2.3.28 Reboots sporadically during day/night. More common when using streaming devices such as rokus/fire tvs. Steps taken:

1. Added surface with airflow and reseat power connection
2. Disabled WMM(wifi multimedia) for 2.4 and 5 ghz under wmm tab on the Qos Setup page, to reduce load (speed is not the issue atm)
3. Went to hidden page 192.168.1.1/Thermal_FAN.htm and verify the Fan temp sensor is NaNC (broken) (set fan speed level?)
4. Went to hidden page 192.168.1.1/debug.htm and enabled fan always
5. Returned the PoS and got a refund!

• Fram filter again
• add anti freeze/coolant (red/pink asian even tho ford calls for orange…)

• 2TB 7200 rpm 256 MB cache
• top left is old and still clicking along…
• 2 from amazon on 2nd shelf.
• top right from newegg
• lost data from being unable to import pool after 'application data loss' from wear/scrub
  • formating the small partition caused error for zpool import
  • had to remove and regenerate zpool cache after reformatting partitions
    • zdb -l /dev/disk-by-id/ showed the labels intact and cachefile had wholedisk property still
• forgot to add drive screws to trays self fasteners
  • labeled 'drive screws' for future use

• added daily midnight reboot to asus router.
  • despite disabling firmware updates in the setting it seems to check daily for them even after toggling the setting
    • it may be filling up its 'disk' leading to problems as the security files are not cleaned up?
• added openwrt luci attended sysupgrades and updated linksys to to latest while keeping configuration

• change asus firmware to https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/ for better stability
  • no openwrt because no broadcom foss

• STP filter

• moved old dead Z42093C1 to bottom left shelf
• the drive with errors that prompted this is the middle left ZFL7AVVP
• all amazon drives seem to have issues… use newegg

• asus router with new modem still loses connection to isp sometimes
  • tech said modem was too old (still listed as support on site) and could not bind multiple upstreams
    • router shows ISP DHCP is not properly configured
    • persists after firmware update to router and daily reboots
• Changed
  • DHCP options from aggressive to continuous which seemed to help recover
    • toggled extend the TTL value (no difference so left off)

• WAN is the only one getting cycled as wifi to lan still works
  • Seems idle cpu temps are extremely high (85C) and the nics are ~50C (fine).
    • added 2 fans (below and above) cpu now at 72C and nics are ~45C.
      • no fans by default so a bad thermal pad(no paste on teardown video)
      • no issues since cooling fans installed
        • still see Deauth_ind, Disassoc, Auth, Assoc but no drops
  • maybe downgrade firmware? (unlikely as upgrades had no effect and already on merlin)
  • maybe switch tp-link and asus?
• check firmware temps with unlisted endpoint /ajax_coretmp.asp

• residue from years of inactivity
  • disable auto turn off
  • largest serve size
  • flush numerous times with white vinegar and water
