Never mind. Uninstalled Genie, rebooted phone and router...reinstalled Genie. Totally different experience. : )
What do you mean by remote access? Beyond WiFi range? I am only capable of accessing Router through Genie App with my Note 5(Android 7.0) while in the WiFi range!!!!!!
By remote I just mean remote via Genie. The "remote access" url also works, but I was trying to make the Genie app work right from outside of my network. And of course I wanted to add the Alexa skill for Netgear. Very cool. : )
Remote doesn't necessary mean access through WiFi!!! Can you access your Router without WiFi or way from home location?
Yep. I never said remote means being on wifi. Yes, I can use the Genie app when NOT on wifi. Yes, I can use remote administration also from outside of network.
