Orbi App Anywhere Access not working
Can’t enable the Anywhere Access in the Orbi App. Every time I try, I get the message “Something went wrong, sorry about this. Please try again”. Anyone know how to solve this problem? ...

There does not seem to be a way to do it when logged into the router through a LAN connected PC using a web browser.
This is correct. Anywhere Access can be enabled/disabled only using the Orbi 'app'. Not only that, but Anywhere Access applies to the specific device running the Orbi app. A customer could have multiple devices:
- Some of which have Anywhere Access enabled and can reach the Orbi from other locations.
- Some of which do not have Anywhere Access enabled and if removed from the Orbi LAN cannot access the Orbi through Netgear's "cloud".
Remote access not working on mine either I get a "something went wrong, try again "
I have deleted the app and reinstall, that did nothing , I don't know I want to do a factory reset , the way this device and app have been working it may never work again ! Terrible ...when I buy a new mesh it won't be orbi.....I would attach a picture, but that doesn't work either!
App running on Samsung S21 plus.
