Firmware Check Error R7000P
When I check for firmware updates using the Nighthawk app for my R7000P, the response is Firmware Check Error . . . no matter how many times I try.
I am also getting the error "logon timed out, please try again. If this issue persists, try rebooting your device". My password is correct, WIFI is connected. When I do in fact reboot, I am able to log in. But if I leave the nighthawk app even momentarily and reenter, I get the time out error again. Very frustrating.

Recommend you avoid the Nighthawk application and do a manual update. The most recent firmware for the R7000P is V1.3.3.154_10.1.86.
