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...
It would be good of Netgear monitored these threads. Anyway, they just released an update which says it fixed exactly this issue: https://kb.netgear.com/000061928/MR60-MS60-Firmware-Version-1-0-4-96. I have tried it and so far so good. Christian_R do you have more details on what was fixed?

I updated and am having the issue worst than before. Devices say connected no internet yet other devices are online and connected without issue on the same network. I rolled back my firmware to 1.0.4.92
So ... same experience... brand new install a couple weeks ago... updated firmware to the latest running 1.04.96. No relief... still the same as all on the thread here. The issue is clearly the connection between the satellite and the main router... the satellite appears online but devices connected to the sattelite are not connecting thru to the internet... if I unplug the satellite all devices re-home immediately to the main router and all is fine... luckily my house is small enough not to really need the satelite since the main router is centrally located. Anyway... hope they can fix this... don't waste your time rebooting the main router... just unplug your satelite to gain stability... the devices always stayed connected fine to the satelite its just the satelite becomes an island... not traffic or volume related... just a software bug I am sure..
So I unplugged the satellite last night hoping it was just the sattelite. Everything is connected to the main router but I'm still dropping. I can't believe how bad this product is. C'mon netgear. We need a real fix.
- I am about ready to return to Costco.
I only haven't because I don't know what to replace it with.
