Thanks for your help. I appreciate all the time you have given me. But at this point I have had it. This is the 2nd Nighthawk same model I have had that has given me a PITA. The first one locked up after clicking on the factory update link in the router view. After calling support which was in another country I came away after 1.5 hours with a dead router. Now out of no where this one decides to not donload apps from the play store thru WiFi. It was fine for a year but now is causing me to hunt remidies on the web and sign into forums like this one which are helpful but time consuming.
So, I just went out and bought a New Sony Router with phone support in the USA. Should be here tomorrow. I also have a another Netgear Router AC2300 (R7000P) in the box. I'll blow that out cheap
Again Thanks For Your Help....It's time to move on with my life and get off the keyboard.

Got it. Not a sony but a motorola.
Makes a little more sense. Looks like a reasonable device.
