Purchased R8000 Night Hawk March 2016 - nothing changed wireless signal stopped working - did factory reset (did not help)
Spoke with NG Tech Support spent 1 1/2 hours on the phone following tasks from Tech Support - Tech Support remotly logged into my computer and tried to make it work - (nothing) after 1 1/2 hours on with tech Support - i was told nothing can be done - Hardware checks out fine, but wireless router will not work not can u log into routerlogin.net - it keeps going in a loop - NG tech Support says - "we have never seen this before - me or my manager" now one would think that if you have never seen something like this NG would want my router back to inspect and investigate the issue to help future customers and inform Tech Support what to look for... NOPE I am to toss this boat anchor which i paid $ 279.00 and buy a new one ---- WOW TERRRIBLE TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE --- WORST I've EVER DELT with, If i treated my CUSTOMERS like this i would no longer have customers... PLUS YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED OT SPEAK WITH A MANAGER (Seriouslly) again WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If anyone monitors this board from NG please reach out top me ---- My CASE # 28787953
I am asking for help seriouslly ---- I will even come work for you and show you how a customer should be treated..... JIM F.

2. Please provide me your network setup. ( What is connected to the router and which ports)

Re: NIGHT HAWK R8000 stopped working
Nothing connected to router except Time Warner modem ...
As for the IP address I cNt tell u because it is disconnected and but back in the box ....I had NG tech service work on the router logged into it last week for an hour and they said they had never seen a router do this before ...
So I disconnected it and put it back in the box hoping to ship it back to NG for testing and possibly receive a new router ...
Let me know what else I can provide for u...
Jim

Hi Farrell207,
1. Connect a computer to the router(LAN ports).
2. Open command prompt(CMD) of your computer and type ipconfig. Look for the IPv4 address. Provide me the IP address and default gateway.
3. What is the color of the LED light for Internet or the globe sign?

Hi Farrell207,
The IP address is a public IP which the modem provide. Please try to double check the network setup. Disconnect the router from the modem and make sure only the computer is connected to the router.
