MR80 + 2 Satellites V1.1.6.6 no devices showing on network map
Using Nighthawk App on iphone 11 iOS 14.8.1. Have 1 MR80 + 2 satellites and all devices show connected to the router and none connected to the satellites. Router is on main floor, and I have 1 sate...
I'm not a huge fan of trusting the app. It seems like everytime they fix on thing about the app, something else breaks.
So what does it show if you log in through the browser and look at the attached devices list? (not through the app)
You can also log into each satellite by its IP address and check.
All devices show when viewing in browser and when you log into each satellite it shows devices connected. Just very annoying that the Nighthawk App is promoted as the primary way to manage your mesh system but it's not reliable or accurate!
Seems like everytime they update the app, it fixes one thing and breaks a different one. A bit sad.
I dont believe this issue is "App" related. I believe this is a firmware issue of the MR80 and MS80 Satelites. If you downgrade firmware to an earlier version, such as 1.1.4.6, then the devices show properly connected to each respective router/satelite. However, Netgear does not give the ability on the routers interface to "stop auto updates", thus the MR80 will auto update the firmware to the latest version causing incorrect information to display in the app.
