Troubleshooting
If you’re having problems with the installation, try the following:
• If you already own another NETGEAR router and you used the
Nighthawk app before, go to the dashboard and tap > SET UP
A NEW NIGHTHAWK SYSTEM to install your new router.
• Turn off your modem and router and disconnect them. Reboot your
modem. Reconnect your router to your modem and try installing
with the Nighthawk app again.
• If you’re still unable to install your router using the Nighthawk app,
manually install it using the router web interface.
