Attempted update to Firmware ver V1.0.4.122_10.0.95 via Nighthawk iOS (WiFi) app this morning. The update failed in the app and I was prompted to Try Again, which I did. Failed again. Then, went to Win 7 PC (which is connected to router via Ethernet cable) and went to access Admin page in order to try update from admin page via PC. Greeted with an error message that the router's admin page could not be reached (ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED). After attempting in several browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox) and receiving same message, unplugged power from R6700v3, rebooted PC and, after starting everything up again, tried accessing routerlogin.net several times and encountered same issue.
Performed a factory reset of the R6700v3 and was able to get to routerlogin.net again (showing current firmware as V1.0.4.122_10.0.95). When I went to restore my R6700v3 config file (backed up in Aug 2021 - with all of my network settings such as SSIDs, assigned IP addresses, etc), the restore of settings went through; however, upon reboot, the router is, once again, refusing every attempt to access routerlogin.net from a PC to which it is connected via Ethernet cable (ref: attached screenshot). Very weird as I have been able to access the Admin page via the Nighthawk iOS app (smart phone via WiFi connection) and I am able to access Internet on the PC and WiFi devices through the router. Apparently, the only way to access the router's admin page is within the iOS app over WiFi and all attempts via PC (wired) are refused.
Has anyone else had success getting to ver V1.0.4.122_10.0.95 and preserving (or restoring from backup) all of your R6700v3 config settings while also maintaining ability to access routerlogin admin page?
Thanks in advance...
