RS700 firmware update 1.0.9.6
Hi After upgrading to 1.0.9.6, something has prevented some of my 2.5ghz devices from being able to connect to wpa2/3 setting when smart connect is enabled. the only way to resolve was to ...
Thank you for the info. Just to give you an update, I installed the previous version of the firmware (1.0.7.96) on my RS 700 and everything is connecting now. I'm not an IT professional but the problems do appear to be related to the most recent firmware update (1.0.9.6).
I just noticed something I'm unclear on: after I downgraded the firmware, I checked the current version and the router displays the current version as 1.0.7.82 both on a web browser and on the nighthawk app.
However, I downloaded and installed the firmware from the zipfile for 1.0.7.96. I went back and rechecked my downloads folder and the file is named RS700-V1.0.7.96_2.0.96.chk. Any idea why it shows up as a much older version of the firmware, 1.0.7.82?
