- News71TutorJust updated the router and satellite to the latest firmware v1.11.0.20
Guest Network is enabled
SSID broadcast is enabled
WPA2-PSK is enabled.
Still, the genie app says the router doesn't support guest WiFi.
Does anyone know how to fix this?I have the same problem. Technical support for Netgear seems to be very very limited and understaffed. I can enable the guest network through the web browser interface but not the genie app. The Orbi app is useless also.
What at I need is a way to schedule my guest network to shut down every day at a prescribed time. Parental controls are not a solution. Come on Netgear, listen to your customers and get it together. This in not a problem with Lynksis.
- News71TutorI agree Mike. The router itself is very good, but the app and genie app are poor. Netgear needs to make some major improvements to both. ASUS has a much bet app.
