The speed test is run on the router, not on the mobile device - the App is just the controller, reading and displaying the test results and the history from the router.

In the App, go to the Main/Home menu and select -> About. Provide exact router model, router firmware, and App version (or an About screenshot) so Netgear can investigate.

...or simply not added (yet) to the product lists. There was just an update of the product lists going on these days as we have seen some test formatted lists temporarily - ChristineT can you please ensure that all newer routers are added here (and not only Nighthawk routers, as also non-Nighthawk-routers can be used with the Nighthawk App. Confusion by marketing complete.
