Re: R7000 not showing connected devices

Last week I updated my Nighthawk R7000 firmware to V1.0.11.128_10.2.112.
Now it only shows 7 of the 22 devices on my network under “Device Manager” in the app and “Attached Devices” in the web admin interface.
Only a small subset of my 2.4 GHz and hard-wired devices are visible. Many of the 2.4 GHz and none of the 5 GHz devices aren’t there. Both networks are active and Smart Connect is enabled.
However, under “Access Control” in the admin interface, I can see everything, just not the band they’re connected to.
Anybody else experiencing this, or have any ideas as to what’s going on? I’m this close to installing DD-WRT or OpenWRT firmware.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Thanks, I did a factory reset and reloaded the firmware. Then manual setup everything. Seems to have solved the issue. Thank you!

Re: R7000 not showing connected devices
Anytime theres an issue after a firmware update, I'd start with a factory reset. Maybe an old setting is causing issues.
Have you tried that?

Re: R7000 not showing connected devices
After the firmware update to V1.0.11.128_10.2.112 only 3 devices showed up in the nighthawk app. I logged into the router and under Basic tab clicked Attached Devices and the same 3 devices showed. I went to the Advanced tab, clicked Administration,

Re: R7000 not showing connected devices
As a work-around with v128, I simply ignore the “Attached Devices” list because it's unreliable and I only use the “Access Control” list to see which devices are currently connected and currently not connected. The device names in the "Access Control" list also accurately match the names that I assigned to the devices in the "Address Reservation" list.

Re: R7000 not showing connected devices
Same thing is happening to me. In addition, I lost the radios - nothing could connect and rebooting didn't help. I did a factory reset and reloaded the old configuration. Same issue - very few devices show in the lists, although the radios are now accepting connections.
Do you know which setting was causing the issue?

Re: R7000 not showing connected devices
Try a factory reset and this time, don't load the backup configuration from file and see if problem still continues.

Re: R7000 not showing connected devices
Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a New back up configuration to file for safe keeping.
