iOS 14.4.1

I recently upgraded iphone to iOS 14.4.1. I have the Nighthawk app on the phone which worked previously. App version is 2.8.5.16. I was able to logon to the router but the device manager did not work. It gave me a failed message (i cannot remember the exact wording). I have rebooted the router and re-installed the app. After re-installing the app, I can no longer logon to the router (I made it worse!) I do not know if it is the iOS upgrade or not (i do not use the nighthawk app very frequently so it may be unrelated to the iOS upgrade).  The router is a AC3600 tri-band R7960P.

 

any ideas?

  • I also face the same problem after upgrading iOS 14.4.1 on my iphone, I just can't gain access to the wifi network. I guess Netgear need to fix the app to be compatiable to the new iOS.

         Have you considered the possibility that the actual error message
      text might contain some useful information?

         Did you get the same error message?

         Which "the app"?


         Possibly interesting:

        Uh I don't think the message "Login failed" is very meaningful. It doesn't seem to provide some useful information.  Again the Nighthawk app worked until I installed iOS 14.4.1. Has anyone else encountered this?
