How do I download the the Nighthawk app on my laptop computer?

Where do I find the download for my router I just purchased so I can download it onto my laptop computer?

    There isn't an "app" for the laptop. You use your browser, as described in the documentation.

     

    If you visit the support pages:

    Support | NETGEAR

    you can feed in your model number and find the documentation for your hardware.

    The Netgear desktop genie offers some useful features.

     

    If you want the desktop genie for Windows start here:

     

    genie Landing Page | Apps | Discover | Home | NETGEAR

     

    You may have to dismiss an annoying pop-up that tries to push a mobile app down your throat.
