Soo.... WHAZ UP~?!?!
Never experienced that with a Nighthawk before... You have the R7000 right?
Have you thought about going Merlin..? I have been using a Merlin port on my R7000 for sometime and have never had issues once going to it... Currently I am sitting on 380.68_3

That aside, I have no idea why it would automatically be turning on the ready share junk, check firmware updates to see if they addressed such an issue in any of them?
Yes, the R7000. It's odd about readyshare since it appears to be dependent on having a USB connected to the router (I don't) or having a readyshare vault cloud account (I don't). I wonder if the massive multicast pushes somehow triggered it.
I'm so far behind in firmware, but I have heard horror stories about people updating the firmware on the nighthawk. I may create a backup and try a different firmware this weekend, I'll let you know if I succeed. I really don't want to get a new router since I'm really attached to this one, but I think that soon I won't have the option.
