Nighthawk App (formerly up)
Does anyone know if the Nighthawk App can support multiple routers in different locations? Thanks
Have just one Nighthawk App compatible router at hand.
The Remote Management view on the App does say "Updating device list" every time this section is accessed, and it seems to refresh the list of "Connect Remotely", and maintains the current online status of the device. So best guess ... I would assume it can support multiple Nighthawk routers, once added to the App while being on each local (W)LAN.
My guess is that even multiple local Nighthawk routers (ie. in AP mode) would be reachable via the "Connect Remotely" once connected.
Let's hope we get some other user or an official confirmation for this.
A potential limitation is in place for Alexa/Google Assistant - How do I fix the "I found multiple routers linked to your account, this feature is not supported" error when sending an Alexa or Google assistant command? - appears for now only one router can be registered to the Genie cloud (again my assumption Genie cloud == Nighthawk App cloud) to make use of these...
michaelkenward do you have multiple Nighthawk at hand for a try?
- Yes but 1600 miles apart. So i wont be able to test until later this fall. I will update the posting with my experience but it will be in a few months I suspect. Thank you.
