Nighthawk Mesh Wifi 6 Router MR60 losing connection to 2.4 devices
I have a Nighthawk Mesh MR60 with the Satelite. About once a day, it loses connection to all the 2.4 devices on my network. It remains connected to the 5.0 devices. I have to reboot the router and...
Another call with netgear and another correction. Didn’t help. This thing sucks. I bought the Orbi and so far no issues. Waiting a week before I dump it back to Costco with a review to remove it from their shelves.
I downloaded a WiFi anakyzer to my tablet. It found all of the WiFi signals in the area. When I expanded my signal, it showed the 4 access points (and also the hidden backchannel). Here is the interesting part. While watching the screen, my access points disapperaed! It took about 10 seconds, but then they reappeared. I watched the screen for about 10 minutes and managed to catch this happening again.
Diappearing access points signafy a definate flaw in the hardware ot software.
The MR60 is junk! terrible!
Hi Snorky what exactly is not working? I'm honestly trying to figure out because I bought it from Costco and I am still within the return window. There's five of us in the house requiring connectivity daily and it seems to be working fine - after I temporarily hard wired each units. The only issue experienced thus far, was bad streaming for Prime one night but I'm not sure if it was this product or if they (Amazon) had some issues. So far, no dropped connections or restarts and speed is close to what the 400 mbps package from Charter/ISP.
Thanks!
When I first got this, it worked flawlessly until I upgraded the firmware a couple months ago, now it has been going down at least twice/week and I am ready to throw it away!
