Cannot login - what changed since earlier this week?

Cannot login - what changed since earlier this week?  I do not remember if I updated firmware but just logged in earlier this week using IP address in browser bar.  Now it sends me to  Router Login & Setup | NETGEAR  - I cleared cache and tried a different router - still sends me there.

 

I downloaded the app but have not gotten that to connect either - and I hate using the small phone screen.  It never connects to my configured Wifi - yet everything works??

 

What happened?

Can I connect on my laptop?

Irritated.

    Cannot login to what? The browser graphical user interface (GUI)?

     

    What Netgear device are we talking about? "Nighthawk X2" is not a model number. The only dev ice I can find that even hints at that is the D7800 modem/router.

    That's the best way to go about it. Connect from the Ethernet port on the laptop to a port on whatever device you are trying to fix.
