Anyone With A Orbi 960 Series/iOS 16.1 Having A Working Anywhere Access?

Yes, it connects to the IPhone 14 pro max “ Local connected” perfectly to the app. Everything from the app to the dashboard works perfectly. It just the Access Anywhere feature will not enable. (Sorry, something went wrong, try again.)

This is SO screwed. Until someone who has a 960 system responds with "yes, Anywhere Access works for me" (or the opposite), I see only two options:
- Shake the hell out of the iPhone and "Report a Bug".
- If you still have some of that famous 90 days of "complimentary support", call Netgear again and ask for more specifics about "what's wrong with Anywhere Access?" i.e. this is not the "Logon timed out" issue on the Android app that got fixed this week. Is this specific to the 960 product?

Yes, I have done the phone shake a few times. I do have several weeks on the support so i will go that route. ………..I think it has something to do with connecting with the “NG Cloud”.

After three weeks of dealing with this I returned the 960 for a refund. Liked the system but I need this feature for a second home.

I’m also having a problem with enabling Anywhere Access…….I guess most people didn’t see “it worked fine for months. It’s a problem accessing the secure NG cloud.
