Login how? Local wifi? Anywhere Access?

 

Nighawk app? (iOS or Android?) Something else?

 

I assume that this is the R9000.

 

What firmware version?

 

What modem/gateway/ONT sits between them and the Internet?

    1. Nighthawk App - V2.20.3.2525
    2. Android - V12
    3. R9000 - firmware  V1.0.5.42
    4. Netgear CM1100 Cable Modem to Xfinity feed
    5. I can access my router in Colorado by using anywhere access from MN
    6. I cannot access my local router using local WiFi in MN while sitting in the same room.
    7. I can log in to the router webpage from my pc

      Have you tried setting up the local router for Anywhere Access?

       

      I also manage a couple of routers from the Android app and both connect happily as Anywhere Access.

       

      At the moment (APP V2.20.3.2515) "Local Connection" is  bust.

       

      It asks for login credentials ans then instantly times out demanding a reboot.

       

      The app is needs fixing.

        I've done it before, obviously, but I don't see how to access the local router from the app using anywhere access.  Thank you.
