Why does my WiFi slow down when multiple devices are connected?
Hi everyone, I’ve been noticing something strange with my home WiFi setup. Whenever only 1–2 devices are connected, everything works perfectly fine. But as soon as more devices join (like phones, laptop, and smart TV), the internet speed drops a lot. For example, in my house, when my brothers and sister all start using their devices at the same time, streaming or browsing becomes very slow. I’m not sure if this is due to bandwidth limits, router settings, or something else. Has anyone experienced something similar? Would really appreciate any suggestions or tips to improve performance.Error codes and will not let me make any changes
Sorry I gave the wrong information. It’s a Nighthawk 8000 P and still after I login will not let me make any changes every time I try to do an update it says error every time I try to make any changes it says error. It won’t let me check the speed going through the router. It comes up error. It doesn’t seem like I can do anything with it, but it seems to be working. Is there any help out there? I’m ready to throw this thing in the trash.Nighthawk app jumble up
Hello. Does anyone have an error in the Nighthawk app that makes the login area impossible to select anything but "forgot password"? I tried to attach a screenshot that I had taken but every time I hit "publish" an error message that said something along the lines of cannot publish now, uploading in progress. Try again later.Orbi app problems
I upgraded to the Orbi 700 series. I followed the app instructions. During the instructions I renamed the factory issued account name to a personal account name for the system. Moving on to add the satellites, the app locked up and would not proceed. I deleted the app and reloaded the app. Now the app locks up at the log in page when attempting to log in to link the Orbi devices to the app. Can anyone offer any guidance?? Thanks
