Nighthawk r7000 and app
I am having issues with Ubisoft. Long story short they want me to port forward. I had to hard reset the router some time ago. Now, I use the app and I cannot connect to the network of the router. I a...
1. what firmware is on the router?
2. what gateway/modem is the router connected to?
3. does the IP address of the router work?
4. why does ubisoft think you need to port forward?
- 1. I don't know as I can't access the router
2. How do I find it out?
3. Is it 192.168.1.1? If so, then no. It times out.
4. Because I can't access AC Valhalla add-ons on my PS5 despite no other problems with anything at all

2. How do I find it out?----follow the little wire thats plugged into the wan port of the router. That'll lead back to something with a model number on it.
3. Is it 192.168.1.1? If so, then no. It times out.---it might have changed if your gateway is a combo device.
4. Because I can't access AC Valhalla add-ons on my PS5 despite no other problems with anything at allYour router might have used a different ip address if it detected a double nat (cascading routers) issue. its why we ask.
Try disconnecting the router from the modem, reboot the router, connect a pc/laptop to the router. then pull up a command prompt and type "ipconfig" the default gateway is the routers ip address.

So I purchased this Netgear Nighthawk R7000 so I could applu ExpressVPN on to it. All good until Ubisoft. I was advised to hard reset the router. Now I cannot access it on the app. It looks for the WiFi connection of the same name, which I am connected to, but the device is not recognised.
I just followed your steps of accessing the router after disconnecting it from the modem. The default gateway address just takes me to ExpressVPN router dashboard. Not the actual router settings.
