Nighthawk Mesh 6 wifi dropping macbooks only, can't reconnect - windows not a problem
Hi just got the nighthawk mr60 wifi mesh with a router and two satellites. My windows machine never has a problem. My 2 mac laptops are often dropped, then when I do reconnect to the modem, it says...
I have the same issue with my Macbook Pro. I got this Mesh system two days ago. And two days in a row the issue has occurred where the router assigns an IP for my MacBook, but the next day the IP will not function. The exclamation point on MacBook wifi icon appears. The only solution is to reboot the router to get a functional IP. Let's see if it happens tomorrow.
I have filed a support ticket for this issue. It would be good if the others who are seeing this issue also do so.
