wirless phone application

Does this netgear 7800 be controlled by my cell phone?   Is there an application that I can download and use to control it?  Thank you in advance

    If you visit the support pages:

    Support | NETGEAR

    you can feed in your model number and find the documentation for your hardware.

    Check the section in the manual Log In to the Modem Router.

     

    Definitely a superior way of managing a modem/router.

  • I believe it uses the netgear genie app. 

    But you don't have to use the app. 

    You can log in through your browser and manage it. Using the browser gives you more options and better data in my experience. 

    the support site with manual, firmware, and install guides can be found here
