This app is a joke. Tried using it to finish setting up my mesh. When first trying to sign in via the router it kept saying it couldn't find it. Then I created an account and when I try to add an existing mesh, it doesn't even search for one. When I click the button, it pops up instantly saying something went wrong and to call them.

some recent update seems to have broken the app. Now when you open the app, it tells you that the router has no Internet connection. But if you troubleshoot without doing anything, it shows the connection is fine and running properly but only if you are connectted to the home network. It prevents the ability to connect the router remotely. Linksys can you fix this?

Insists that my router does not have internet when it does. Notifications decide whether they want to be turned on or not. Does allow you to see the signal strength of devices on the network, but seldom in numeric format. At this point I'm keeping the app for a few days to make sure that the child nodes are staying connected, then I'll be uninstalling it and just using the browser interface from a desktop, which will constantly nag me to get the app that doesn't work.

After the recent time change, I figured I would reboot the router. I tried multiple times logging in through the app, and despite everything working ok on the network, the app tells me the router is offline and won't log me in, just as several others have posted. If you try logging in via 192.168.1.1, it won't recognize Firefox on your phone as a supported browser unless you're in desktop mode. Bottom line, the app has been rendered completely useless. Time to install DD-WRT.

A recent update seems to have broken the app. Now when you open the app, it tells you that the router has no Internet connection. But then if you run a router internet speed test in the app, it shows the connection is fine and running properly. But even after the test, the main summary page in the app still shows that there is allegedly no Internet connection. Using a Pixel 5a, Android 14, and EA8300 router. UPDATE: The March 18 app update has resolved the issue for me. Thanks Linksys!

App no longer allows you to manage external storage. Can only access it through the router. Since I'm at it.. You have no idea what devices are connecting to your network except for big name devices. At least put an incremental number so you can know what you're trying to block. It's bad, been using Linksys for probably 20 years (not exclusively). When this mesh network eventually stops working because of some update I'll be switching. It's apparent they have no desire to improve anything
