And if you disable AA in the NH app while your at home with the router and your mobile device, exit the app, then relaunch the app, then go back in and re-enabled Anywhere Access, then navigate back to see if you get the AA entry in the list of devices in the app?
Be sure to disable any MAC Address randomizers on phones and pads while at home:
