SSWaltersII,

 

The articles linked below provide devices that support the Nighthawk app and Genie app. You will need to setup remote management on the C7000v2 which is found in page 96 of the user manual linked below.

Sadly, Christian, none of these address my specific need and request of REMOTE management VIA one of the apps.

 

They cover:

  • Management via the apps - while logged in on the local network.
  • Management via web browser - while logged in on the local network.
  • Remote Management via web browser.

But not:

  • Remote Management via either of the apps (Genie or Nighthawk).

Or...am I missing something?

 

Best Regards.
