Annoying "Smart Parental Controls", Genie App, and Auto-time sync advertisements!
Every time I login to the router I get those annoying advertisements for Smart Parental Controls, The Genie App, auto-time sync, etc. I login and logout of the router many times a day and all thos...
For desktop management, use a web browser pointed at the router or modem.
Mobile apps are only made for phones and pads.
I already use the browser pointed at the router. That's where all the annoying advertisements keep popping up. I see no way to disable them. The 1st advertisement is for CIRCLE, to: "Enable Smart Parental Controls on Your Router". Once I click out of that advertisement I get the 2nd one: "Speed up your experience by using the Netgear App.
I also have the constant large banner on the bottom of the left panel advertising their Netgear App from the Google Play store and the Apple App store.
This router was expensive, and I still have to constantly click through ads all over the place! Is there no way to disable them?
