Unfortunately I just got around to changing passwords this morning and it already had scanned so I will have to wait and see. One thing I noticed in todays scan was the Nighthawk App is still sending curl commands to my printers and wasting paper and ink. Can anything be done about that or are we still awaiting a fix? Thanks.

      Hi Ellisf, 

       

      We are still awaiting a fix on the printer issue. However, I can get you in contact with our support team to see if they can provide a possible beta firmware that may resolve the issue. 

       

      Regards,

        The firmware you are talking about is the router correct? a beta firmware sounds risky. Also even after updating passwords both NAS drives are still showing as vulnerable.
