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 been having numerous drops being hardwired in and through wifi.
How did you assign the satellites static IPs? Throught the Nighthawk app?- FURRYe38Feb 16, 2022Guru - Experienced User
You can assigned IP address reservations for the MS on the MRs web page using a PC or Laptop and a web browser connected to the MRs web page.
