How do I add mac address using Android app

antinode Thank you for asking.  As a network guy, I apologise if it seemed I made an assumption; I did. When I think of connecting via any hard wired port; even if that port is connected to another router, or switch, I think of it (indirectly) as a physical connection to the port in the Nighthawk.  So, I took some shortcuts in my description, rather than go into details of my network setup and I'm sorry that was confusing.  To clarify, I do not have a redily accessable machine that connects via any method directly to one Nighthawk ports... permanently.  I suspected I would have to make that hardwire connection; just as I did when I first configured the Nighthawk.  I'm also still in the process of determining my final network configuration as long as I have access to the internet.  However, it appeared at first blush that the app would provide me with the kind of remote access I would need.  Apparently that is not true.  Again, OK by me.

microchip8 I am able to log into the nighthawk via a mobile app; however, my Nighthawk did not want to provide my mobile device a wireless connection to the 192.168.0.1 web based browser; but even that is OK by me. 

antinode I was merely wondering if the app would be able to give me access to that setting on the router and somehow in spite of scouring every path in the app I could not find a way to access those permissions.  I appreciate your letting me know you don't know about the apps functionality.  And, I will add, that from a security perspective, I can appreciate that, once I basically lock out any new devices, one requires a physical connection to add that new device.  I'm not 100% positive that it's required; and if I needed to add a new device remotely using the app I could appreciate having remote access; however, not knowing everything about the app; I wouldn't want to presume that it *could* provide me the security I would like and as I mentioned; I'm OK with neediing a physical connection.

I want to say that personally, I do not trust many of my public facing appliances and as such keep them on a separate network isolated from my home office.  The purpose of the Nighthawk is to provide me a secure wifi connection, and physical connections when needed.  Keeping my appliances on a seperate wifi netowk also allows me to reset that network without other issues.  

I am only slightly torn by the lack of ability to maintain the router remotely.  And, I have thought a lot about whether I'd even want a mobile app to have that kind of access and do not consider it to be a feature I would ultimately want.  Therefore, I will not be suggesting adding any new features to the remote access mobile app. ;-)

Thank you for you time in responding.  I apprecaite you getting back to me so quickly.  So, Happy New Year to you both microchip8 & antinode !
