Unable to register router for genie remote access
Hey there, I registered this router before it made it here and would like to have it available on Genie for iOS. It does NOT show on my Remote when logging in to "MyNetgear" from the Phone. I ASSUME it may have to be Removed so I can log-in and register that way? Can you help or can this be added somehow so I may get remote access to my system? I got this just for the Remote Monitor Features and have a X8 coming. THANKS for ANY help to get me into the Router.

The Genie Remote was introduced in the Nighthawk Router series.

Welcome to the community, N8NOE
WNDR4500 can't be access remotely through Remote Genie.
Your only option to access it remotely is through Remote Management feature.
Many Thanks, been killingmyself to get this UN-Registered, so that I could Register via Genie, figure thats why I could not use the iOS Genie..
I hope the coming Netgear X8 can... Getting it from a Friend, but should be fine here.
THANKS AGAIN..

You're welcome.
Is that the R8500? If it is then it'll work.
