Nighthawk X6S does not list connected devices
Having logged on to my new X6S (set up as an access point with the router and two subsidiary devices connected through cable and a few wirelessly), I try to list the connected devices. I get the "Ple...
The EX8000 has had the internet firmware update bug since the initial firmware v1.0.0.82. The problem with connected devices not listing started with firmware v1.0.0.92 and is still a bug in v1.0.0.102. For now I have gone back to v1.0.0.82 so I can monitor what devices are connected.
Seems to be a bit better in new firmware out now...
- Firmware Version: V1.0.0.118
It does however seem to get the list of wired clients wrong, I assumed it would only show devices plugged into the rear ports but it lists all of them...
- The EX8000 v1.0.0.82 firmware also listed all devices. I will update to v1.0.0.118 now.
I just tried it again and it no longer works :( :( :(
Pretty pathetic and as the last "update" was November how long will it take before their next attempt?
EDIT: Tried it again and it worked so it seems to be a bit hit or miss...

I have a new X6S as well - mine also does not show devices. I am however not using it in AP mode. I'm using it as an extender. Though it's 300 ft aaway from the primary router and is handling 3 lan connections and several wifi. (shouldn't it still list devices?) I installed the latest .118 firmware only to find out while doing so that I already have it. So just installed it again.
