With the Android app you have to create a NETGEAR account. There is an explanation of this in the manual, which should be at the end of this link:
genie Landing Page | Apps | Discover | Home | NETGEAR
Check page 7.
This probably applies also to the iVersion.

Yep I have. All my devices are listed. I have had RA working on it before, had a little difficultly with it a firmware update or so ago but this time it’s being much more stubborn. Just have to wait for another firmware update or Genie update. Will have a go at any other ideas that pop into my head in the meantime.
