GENIE APP ON IOS AND ANDROID FAILED TO LOGIN
REFER: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Genie/Can-t-login-to-router-via-Genie/m-p/1303462#M6085 Many of us are having issues logging on to Genie App on Netgear Nighthawk X6 R8000. Since there was...
Agreed. I have also updated my firmware to 1.0.3.48 and Genie app on Android and iOS is functioning again. Locally and Remotely it works without flaws. Finally this is sorted out.
Also, you have to restart the router to get access to the mobile app. Strikes two and three! I'm done with Netgear, going to buy a Linksys WRT 3200 ACM.
I am very frustrated with my new purchase of a Nighthawk X6. I am able to log into the router from my desktop hard wired PC only. The Genie app also works on the PC. When I try to log into the router from my iPad or Iphone using the genie app it only works once or twice and only after rebooting then router.
I have rebooted the router several times and nothing helps. I have not done a factory reset as I have read other post that some routers are having worse issues after the reset. I guess I can just return this and try another brand if there is no solution. The best feature being able to use the Netgear genie was what convinced me to stay with Netgear but it has to be functional.
