"Anywhere Access" in Nighthawk app not working
Just bought a new RAX75 router and am trying to access it remotely via the Nighthawk app "Anywhere Access" feature. App works great while I am at home logged into my network via wifi. Here's what I ...
Have you set up Remote Access? (Netgear recently started calling it Anywhere Access.)
It isn't clear to me that you have done that step.

P.S. I had to pick a model number to post this. Netgear doesn't give the RAX75 as an option. So I picked RAX 80 instead (hope this doesn't matter)
Yes, this place can be messy. You might have had more like in the section given over to your device, even though the issue is with the app.
Yes. One oif the first things I did was turn on "Enable Anywhere Access" within the app settings.
Disable and re-enable in the App does not help?
Using ISP DNS potentially blocking useful services?
I deleted and reinstalled the app. That did not cure the problem.
I have never had any problems with my ISP blocking anything. And by the way, I was successfully using this app with my prior Netgear router to access it remotely. This problem only occured when I migrated to a new Netgear router (RAX75).
Had this issue as well.Use to work and just stopped. Went into app and turned it off and back on and I was able to connect :)
Note: Actual router model is RAX35, but it's not in the list. Also using the 6250 Extender.
I know this problem has been reported before, but not recently, and from what I've read in prior postings thery don't resolve my problem. I'm running the latest firmware on my router & extender, and I've re-booted the router. I'm using app V2.10.0.16 on my Apple/IOS phone. When I attempt to enable Anywhere Access (ie. Remote Management) I get the error message "Some error occurred while enabling/disabling Anywhere Access". Using the app seems to be the only method to enable this. Any suggestions to try?? Thanks, Ron
