How do I download the nighthawk app for a desktop. Is this machine only for a mobile device or can I use it on a desktop?

    Hi Balaclava, welcome to the community! The Nighthawk app is available only for mobile devices on both iOS and Android. It does not have a desktop equivalent.

    You can use the desktop genie for your operating system.

     

    If you want the desktop genie for Windows start here:

     

    genie Landing Page | Apps | Discover | Home | NETGEAR

     

    You may have to dismiss an annoying pop-up that tries to push a mobile app down your throat.

     

    It is a pity that Netgear is trying to force us all to use its crummy mobile apps. Some of us still use PCs.

  • I have been using Night Hawk Router Model R6350/ AC1750 for more than 2 years and mange the device list by using IOS app.

     

    Recently the device list is appears as not found in the app and I reinstalled app but no use.

    Logged in to webiste and it shows the device list but the problem is with IOS app.

     

    May I know how to solve this problem

     

    Thank you inadvnce.
