Firmware 1.0.9.88 R7000 shows duplicate devices
After downloading this firmw5 version I noticed the on the nighthawk app in device manager that there seems to be a lot more devices connected then there actually is. For example I only have my tv con...
I finally got a chance to take the network down for a while and was able do a factory reset of the AC1900 R7000. I updated the firmware to 1.0.11.136_10.2.120 from a computer connected to the router via ethernet. So far everything is working. I will post if problems develop.
why not update to the 1.0.11.134 version of firmware?
- I had the router check for new firmware and it said there is nothing new đ
I also downloaded a new update for the app but still seeing the same situation. Logged in and out of the app, rebooted the router.... same.The auto-update process for the r7000 has never worked that great.
You can manually update through. I'd recommend doing it through a hardwired connection for best results.

I recently updated my R7000 AC1900 firmware from V1.0.9.64_10.2.88 to V1.0.11.134_10.2.119. It worked for two days and then the wifi connected devices would no longer communicate with each other. The devices were all on the primary network not the guest network. The wifi speed did not make a difference. Also found the router browser interface would not work correctly sometimes. After combing the internet for hours I gave up and I went back to V1.0.9.64_10.2.88. Everything is working well now but I really would like to keep up with the latest firmware. Any help is appreciated.
