Nighthawk MR60 needs to be factory reset every day
When I awake in the morning every device I have can't connect to my router, so I have to go through the pain of manually resetting the router to default, letting it start up as the default SSID, then...
I was so hopeful! I downloaded both the MR and MS zips, extracted them and went through the manual update process. I did the satellites first, then checked them and the connected devices still don't show in the gui and I still can't rename them. I then moved on to the router thinking maybe THAT is the issue and ......same thing. Both the router and satellite install warned me the same firmware version was already installed also, but of course I simply reinstalled it. Any other ideas I should try?
Correction - upon rebooting the router and renaming to my custom SSID through the Nighthawk App I could not connect. ONLY if the name is the out-of-the-box name provided will it connect, then I can rename later via routerlogin
Changed my Guest Network to the SSID all of my IoT devices know already and so far, so good. Not sure what's "corrupted" about the primary network being the SSID I prefer. Something's still not right though - the devices still show strange info. I'm wondering if it's Nighthawk that's causing all the problems.
have you tried downgrading the firmware a version?
You can also try it with the satellites off to see if maybe its a satellite issue causing the problem.
I definitely thought about it. After finally getting a persistent connection over the weekend I decided to try that later this week. I'm assuming older versions are found at the same location I got x122, right?
