thank you for helping me to reach out Netgear support. they contact me and the first thing they want is proof of purchase !!!! my router is 2.5 year old so is out of warranty and I don't have a receipt. honestly what proof of purchase has to do with a error app???? I have one account with netgear and it shows one router registered with this account. the problem exists on netgear's server. I still can't use remote management feature on the app so is became useless.instead of fixing the problem they blowing off customers chasing proof of purchase !!!!

I'm not clear on what you have offered is of any help. Maybe things have changed, but clearly this message hasn't. I have had this router for years, and now it won't let me turn on the remote management. I probably should just replace it, anyway.
