I have the same issue.

I unblocked a device from my iPhone and the iPhone got blocked itself. When I went on my laptop to go to the portal, I could see that my iPhone was now blocked and the device I was trying to unblock initially was still blocked. When I went to unblock both, only my iPhone would unblock and the initial device would not no matter how many times I've tried. I had to resort to turning it off, can Netgear get their **bleep** together before releasing firmwares or at least not force it on us.
