Genie Advanced settings don't display
My first post here. I've been running two R6250 in my home network, one as Wifi router and one as an access point. It all ran fine for a year or so - until my cable modem died. Replaced the modem with a new Netgear CM600. Now having trouble with Netgear Genie. On the ADVANCED tab, none of the screens load/display, making it impossible to change any of the settings. They were there before. This is happening with both R6250s. Tried updating the firmware on one of them. Tried resetting on both of them. Have deleted google chrome history repeatedly. None of these things seemed to make a difference. I don't know what to do. A little help please.

Well done, thanks for the report back. It might help fellow victims in future.
Out of interest, which browser and blocker?

Now that Netgear Genie on the main R6250 (the one used as router) can see the second R6250 (the intended AP), I would like to set the intended AP to work as a stand alone wireless access point. Problem now is connecting to the intended AP. routerlogin.com only gets to the main R6250. Using Chrome and entering the intended's IP fails to connect - times out every try. The connection between R6250s is wired ethernet plugged into one of the LAN ports on the main R6250 and into the WAN port on the intended R6250. Got any ideas? How can I reach netgear genie on the intended AP?
