Nighthawk X6 R8000 - OpenVPN
Hi, I have a Nighthawk X6 R8000. Hardware Version R8000 Firmware Version V1.0.4.84_10.1.84 GUI Language Version V1.0.4.80_2.1.49.1 I try to activate OpenVPN so I can access my home network. I have activated the VPN in Advanced settings and I downloaded the config files. Then installed OpenVPN in my Android phone and imported the Profile from the router setup. But I can't connect. If I use default settings on my phone I get a error message that "Server TLS version is too low". That message can be disabled by checking "Enforce TLS 1.3" on the phone under OpenVPN advanced setting. But still I can not connect my VPN client. The Router log is just [OpenVPN, connection fail]IP address:78.77.195.13 Thursday, Apr 25,2024 19:20:00 The OpenVPN log on the phone is more detailed but basically it is starting the handshaking but ends up with "Connection Timeout". If I run the http://192.168.1.1/openvpn_crt_check.htm I always get the same result. There is a OpenVPN update available, I click Update, it looks like its updating, it comes back to start page. But if run the same link I get the same result. What might be wrong? Any suggestions will be very much appreciated.cant install my insight device(way610) to My Nighthawk (ax1800)
Installed my new networks where I started with the access point (ax1800) in Nighthawk. But in the program I could not add my insight devices (wax610, wax610y). Also, I can not add my ax1800 in insight. So I can not make any mesh network of my three devices. How do I enable them to communicate with each other?Facetime Audio Lag with Nighthawk XR500
Hi, For a couple of month ago I changed my old Asus router to a XR500, but since then the audio is laging when using facetime on iPhone. I have tested several iPhones with the same results. I have a fiber connection, stable at 500/500Mbs and I did not have this issue with my asus router. Any ideas? All the best, FredrikNighthawk router upgrade
I have had a Nighthawk R8000 router and two EX7000 AC1900 Netgear wi-fi extenders for almost 10 years with excellent functionality. After an email from Netgear, to upgrade firmware in the Nighthawk router, it has died. I decided to buy a new one, but need advice which model I should buy and if I should keep my wi-fi architecture and keep my EX7000 extenders. I have 2floor house with a cellar and a big garden around the house. I need good wi-fi connections on all floors and outside in the garden. My fiber internet connection and my Nighthawk router are placed in the cellar, with bad wi-fi environment for reaching outside the cellar. All the wi-fi antennas on the Nighthawk R8000 router did not work/reach outside the cellar. The EX7000 extenders are connected to the router with internet cables. What new equipment should I buy? I am very thankful to all advice I can get.EX7320 Nighthawk AC200

Hi Valérie, You asked me on FB to continue the query here at the community a while back as I'm having quite a lot of trouble with my R8000. This is our latest posts: You: Hi Martin Nilsson, Yes, that's what I meant. Is the R8000 in AP mode when you follow these instructions? So, if it's not, it's in router mode. Not to have issues, your ISP modem should be set up in bridge mode. If it's not, you have 2 routers on your network and it can create double NAT issues. Valérie, Team NETGEAR Me: Hi Valérie, I've removed the ISP modem entirely. And my network cable is connected directly to my R8000. Rgds, Martin And thats basically as far as we came. I'm still experiencing lots of troubles with router rebooting frequently, not all possible connections showing (should be 3. The 44, 44 5g1 and 44 5g2) and as it is right now. All lights are there but my connection on the phone only show the 44 5g1. But won't connect. I've even received the error message "wrong password" from time to time... Any way we could sort this out u think..? Kind regards, Martin
