CAX80 Nighthawk App Issue

Just recently purchased the CAX80 router modem and am having trouble with the Nighthawk app.  After launching the app (iPhone or iPad) I am unable to access the security section. After clicking on it I get this message: ERROR - Device does not exist in UPBackend DB or invalid.  If I reboot the apple device and the router I can connect to the security section for a short time then the error returns.  Support has been no help to me (still waiting for a response to my open ticket).  Anyone in this comunity have any ideas how to resolve this issue?

  • Does it work fine if you're logging into it using a web browser and not the app?

      I am unable to click on the security tile from the web browser interface either. It is there but I am unable to click it to open the interface.

        Does it give you an error or what do you mean you can't click on it through the browser
