Nighthawk mesh mk63 with c6900
Not able to connect nighthawk mesh mk63 with c6900. It says “Router not supported”. The Nighthawk app does not support your router model.

You can connect the MK system to the C6900 without having to disable the C6900's router.
You can connect the MK system and just put it in access point mode. That leaves the C6900 managing the routing functions with the MK system acting as an access point. You'd just want to make sure the C6900 has a seperate ssid and the wireless channels are on different channels to prevent interference with the 2 systems.
The "model not supported" is in relation to the app. Some devices aren't supported in the app. (C6900 would be one) so simply use the browser when connecting to the C6900. You can also use the browser to setup the MK system as well.
