FYI- firmware update 1.4.1.66_1.3.26 broke Nighthawk app
router = R7960P, current firmware = 1.4.1.64_1.3.25
phone OS = iOS 14.2, Nighthawk app version = 2.7.2.19
updated the other day, became unable to connect to the router through the Nighthawk application (kept getting logon timeout error); I downgraded back to the previous firmware version and was able to connect again
seems like there is an compatibility issue with the firmware version and application version

I had the exact same issue!!! I had to directly connect to the router in order to downgrade back to v1.4.1.64

Any chance Netgear will be able to address this within a forthcoming firmware update? I'm not installing the 1.4.1.66 update due to this issue.

Hello,
Our product teams are aware of the reports and currently investigating. In the meantime. may you update/reinstall the Nighthawk app as we released a new version for iOS (2.7.6.3).

Roll back to the previous firmware version and wait for fix.
