RS200 Nighthawk App Device List
(09/18/25) I have the Nighthawk app v2.47.0.4909 on my android and the most current firmware (v1.0.5.12) installed on my RS200. If I log in to the web access for the router, all the attached devices are listed and listed properly. However, in the app, that is not the case. Devices that are attached are not listed, devices are listed incorrectly, and others are not showing up at all. EG: my laptop is connected via 5G Wi-Fi but is only listed in the app as a wired device that is not connected, also, new devices (like the new tablet we got our daughter) is not listed at all. Router has been rebooted and power cycled, app had the cache and memory cleared and reinstalled, all has had no effect on devices listed in the app.

In what way are devices listed incorrectly?
- The MAC address is incorrect?
- The IP address is incorrect?
- The description ("name") of the device does not match the description in the web version?
Is the Nighthawk app using a local connection or Anywhere Access?
