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.

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.

Agreed, and thanks for this. I suggest that this thread remain unsolved until either 1) firmware 1.4.28 is fixed or 2) a subsequent firmware is released that solves this issue.
