This KB worked for me, it was a little annoying, but the tech I had was patient. After we tried all the standards, this was finally the one that got it going.

je13air47's method fixed my problem. I had blinking white lights on all satellites after attempting a FW update through the Nighthawk mobile app. I tried power cycling and hard resets, but none of that fixed the problem. I'm not hardware savvy, so I was reluctant to push a FW update through a hardwired connection, but I followed the instructions exactly, and now my my mesh network is working again.

It's recommended to use the MR or MS web pages first to push any FW updates to the MS first, then MR lastly using a wired PC. Wireless is not recommended.
TFTP would only be needed as a last resort.
Using the mobile NH app can be problematic and is not recommended to do any FW updates thru.
Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
Enjoy. 📡

- StbricehJul 07, 2022AspirantDoing this process fixed your satellites stuck on blinking white problem? Because I have one satellite that's been doing this for months. I gave up on it, I've tried factory reset, pressing the sync and the reset together, it never responds.
- dmsaeJul 07, 2022AspirantYeah, I followed the instructions, and it ended up being easier than I thought
