Nothing but problems with Nighthawk
Ever since I purchased the Nighthawk I've had issues. Every so often the router will decide that one of my devices does not need internet that day. I check my Nighthawk app, no errors or messages of any kind, lights on the front look fine, power cycle sometimes works. Give it a day or so and all of a sudden the internet on that device is back. So far this is wireless only, wired devices seem to stay connected. This has happened with iphone, ipad and 2 different laptops using wireless. I've done all updates that show on app. Firmware - V1.0.2.66_2.0.42
Anyone have any ideas or do I just trash this junk?
