Nighthawk App won’t connect
Hello All, Anyone else experiencing login issues with the Nighthawk app (iOS version) as of lately? I’ve never had a problem ever until about a month ago after the new firmware update. Current Firm...
IOS app used to connect fine to the primary router but now it doesn’t. It says it is having issues with the WiFi network. But the WiFi network is working fine and one of my WiFi access points is a simple nighthawk in AP MODE so it cannot be blamed on the mesh.
Is it necessary to turn on “remote access “ now on the router even to use the app on the home network ( not remotely)? Or is this a known issue with the latest firmware hit fix ?
Systems:
IOS: 14.7.1
Router R7900p, Firmware Version 1.4.1.82 - Hot Fix
My WiFi access points are :
1. Netgear R7900 in AP mode
2. EERO mesh in BRIDGE mode
Note: the R7900P is the central router

Turn OFF the R7900 in AP mode and check the app to see if it connects to the R7900P thats in router mode.
