Nighthawk Mesh Wifi 6 Router MR60 Dropping Satellite Connections
I bought an MR60 system from Costco last June. It was worked fine up until the last couple of weeks. Recently its begun dropping connections to the Satellites. There is no way that I can find to...
Just purchased this about a week ago. For the first couple of days, was having the same issue as everyone else here, but since assigning the satellites static IPs, it has been rock solid. The other thing I did (as a result of having issues with my Sonos) was changed the wireless channels for both 5gHz and 2.4gHz, based on what the Wifi analytics (in the app) told me were the best channels to use. I doubt changing the channels did anything, but assigning the static IPs sure seemed to help (as suggested by another user). Just wanted to post this, to confirm what others had suggested.
I have the issue since update of the sattelites to V1.0.6.16.
I've also made some other changes like re-adjusting QoS bandwith that shouldn't have an impact.
Sometimes it droppes a sattelite after one day. Today it dropped all 3 sattelites 30min after hard reset.
I have servers running that need internet access. The instability has reached unacceptable levels.
I'm so fed up that I will hardwire everything (which means construction works). I can't even sell the MR60 mesh system with good conscience.
Netgear has really messed up the SW develpment- and verification setup of this product.
Netgear should get it's priorities right. When admins are very unhappy with their consumer equipment at home it will have an impact on their enterprise decisions.
