Re: install R7000 router w/o a smartphone

SUCCESS!   It only took 1010 days, or  2 years, 9 months and 5 days, or was it 24,240 hours to get this guy working. LOL!!!!!   Yes I was a young man when I bought this guy on 2019.:)   But I"m from the never give up generation.   Step back, yes.   Give up, not a chance.   I also was determined to get this sucker working before I hit that big 8 OH! 😎  

 

I'd like to thank everyone  that helped me out.  I truly appreciate your time and expertise.  

I did have a bit of help from my daughter who finally gave me a big 45 minutes and her time and a Smart Phone.   It only took that long because I forgot that I had to use the password that  came with the Nighthawk and not my password or the default admin password.

Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
