Access Denied after update to firmware version v1.1.4.28
This issue is still a problem where login becomes impossible through a browser (only when internet is connected on wan port). Only solution is to roll back to earlier firmware and factory reset and turn off auto updates. Really frustrating and a huge waste of time.

Not much to go on there.
If there is one it might help if you told people the make and model number of the modem/gateway/ONT that connects this router to the Internet. Is it, by any chance, also a router, with a set of LAN ports on the back?
I ask because a lot of people turn up here trying to put a router behind a modem that is also a router. That can complicate troubleshooting.- Thanks for the reply. This thread is about a defective firmware update first identified here: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Nighthawk-with-WiFi-6-AX-and/Access-Denied-after-update-to-firmware-version-v1-1-4-28/m-p/2362757#M37766.
That thread was "solved" however I wanted to be clear that the solution required a rollback to previous firmware and turning off automatic firmware updates, so it is not really solved.
My ONT is a Nokia modem only with no extra ports or router functionality. This is not caused by double NAT.

I think there were several conversations on that issue.
This seems to have been the most useful contribution:

Then there was this:

As you say, it isn't SOLVED but there were workarounds to get you out of the immediate hole.
