Nighthawk C7000 AC1900 GENIE APP
I have a NETGEAR account. I am trying to set parental controls. I downloaded the GENIE app in IOS. When I try to log in to the GENIE app I get the error message to enter the correct user name and password.
1. I cannot change the user name (admin)
2. I tried both the router password on the box and the default password ("password"). None of them work.
3. I disconnected the "Limit IP Address Tracking" in the WI-FI section of settings. It didn't work.
4. I tried the Nighthawk app but the router is not supported in this app.

The password should be the one you use to log into the router.
When you first setup it up, it should have required you to change it during setup. it'd be whatever you set it to.

Thank you. That is the password that I am using, but it does not work either.
