I have the 6700v3 and sounds like the exact same problem, I dont want to make a seperate thread for the same issue.
After unboxing, I connected the router to my modem, and did the initial setup using my PC connected to the nighthawk's WIFI. Got the SSID and password made, and changed the ADMIN password, looked around quickly through the available options and closed out the browser. I connected using my android app and everything seemed to work, I ran some speed tests in different rooms, etc, and when I was satisfied everything was good, I closed it out.
About 30 minutes later, I opened the android app to run some more speed tests in different rooms and it started giving me the cannot connect message. I tried switching to the 2.4ghz and same thing. I tried logging in on PC and I get error ro connect to router or clear cache. I tried clearing cache and that did nothing, so I tried using chrome browser instead of firefox and it just gave me a blank screen.
I have tried resetting all the equipment multiple times and cannot connect, but the WIFI is still working.
