Genie and NightHawk apps are only for Netgear products. Genie is slowly being phased out I believe for most NG routers. 

 

You'll need to contact Foxtel for help and information on there product. 

Good Luck.

       The V6510 may be a "Netgear product", but it's an ISP-specific
    product with ISP-specific firmware, so support for it in any app is
    determined by the ISP and the app vendor.
