Netgear Nighthawk App - all my options are gone
For whatever reason I lost all of the options on the home screen of the netgear nighthawk app. Parent controls (Circle), traffic meters, all are gone. I have no idea why.
I tried uploading the latest firmware to the router.
Deleting and installing back the app.
Hard resetting the router
Nothing works.
I have the RAX200 Nighthawk AX12
Problem solved. I unchecked "enable AP Mode"
All the features in the App are now present.
This was from the user guide.
Set up the router as a WiFi access point
You can set up the router to run as an access point (AP) on the same local network as another router.
To set up the router as an AP:

Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the Nighthawk App product. Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with Nighthawk App. Might be more likely to find someone who has a solution if the question is posted there:
