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).

      Hi TheComputerhyp

       

          unisntall/reisntall app does not cure this issue. 

      Here is my suggestion:

      1. reboot your RAX75/80

      2.after boot up, connect mobile phone to your RAX75/80 and then launch app to dashboard

      3. Lead to page "Dashboard -> hambur menu --> Settings-->Anywhere Access

      4.Turn off and then turn on toggle button "Enable Anywhere Access". Just re-enable Anywhere Access.

       

      check if you can renable success, if yes, then check if still show offline remotely,

       

      Thanks!
