Well, I may have solved it via sheer aggravation. Haha
rather than signing in via the terrible app, I signed in via IP on my laptop
went to the net gear site and saw update (1.0.11.148), which I downloaded. Router admin prompt did not self find the update but did apply the download manually
Not sure why self update didn’t work.
