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...

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.

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!

Hello @Christian_R, any update about this??

I bought a new M60 mesh from Best Buy. I guess I do have the same issue. Dropping wifi connections. I thought it was a fluke, but obviously not. I'll return mine in the next week since its not an addressable issue.
Running Firmware Version V1.0.6.102_2.0.45.
What brand is the better brand for a mesh setup since its not Netgear?
