  • What firmware are you on? 

    Whatt modem/gateway is it connected to? 

    you description wasn't very clear. Are you having issues using the app? 

    Everything else works fine?

        the app issue is a problem with firmware and the app. I've seen several posts on here with issues on the .66 firmware. 

        You can either wait to see if an app update fixes it, if a firmware change fixes it, use the browser for the time being instead of the app, or others have downgraded the firmware a version
