Can you take us through this in a bit more detail?
What do you mean by "can access the router on line"? With a wired connection and a browser? Something else?
Which app?
Remember, mobile devices have to connect to the wifi before you can begin to manage the browser.
On line through browser (wireless) with laptop. The other access that is not working is the nighthawk app on my iPad. Was working previously? Had a problem with my modem that Century link walked me through a fix which required restarting modem/router. Everything else works fine, but NETGEAR app could not connect with my name/password. I uninstalled and reinstalled app, but still says name password not valid? Thank you for your reply

There are several passwords you could use. The one that connects to the wifi, the one that gets into the router's controls and the pair for MyNetgear that allow you to use remote control.
