Nighthawk App (formerly up)
I just downloaded the app on my smartphone and upon installation and setup it says my Nighthawk router is not compatible (R7500v2).
What is the problem?

Here is the list of supported routers but we are constantly updating.

This was a mistake in the firmware notes but support for this router is coming soon.

Similar problem with the XR450 - all docs does claiming it's supported, however similar message. Disappointing.- SteveMadisonJul 23, 2018Aspirant
The Nighthawk app on my iphone stats the XR450 is not supported.
I just purchased the XR450 on Saturday, installed and registed the device last night, and am not able to contact support. The GUI on a laptop is really nice, not so nice on the smartphone safari browswer, so I hope the app will be updated so I can use it on my mobile device.
