Nighthawk App Lacking Controls
I own and enjoy this router yet I am looking at switching back to xFinity WiFi 6 solely due to their app. The XFi App offers incredible features and controls for individual devices. I have three teenagers and need to be able to turn off their devices access to internet at a given time. With xFi this was simple, yet when I switched to Netgear I was shocked to see the same features weren’t available. Is this in the works? Can’t be that difficult to code the changes. Can anyone provide any info on this before I switch?
