    It also shows Remote Management on my Nighthawk router.

     

    You could also see if you can enable that in the Orbi App and a local wifi connection.

    Not a problem, but as you can a see Orbi may not be the same as Nighthawk.

    Maybe the manual is out of date. What about Web Services Management?

     

    While many questions about routers are generic and could be answered anywhere, some things need specialist knowledge.

    You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

    Orbi - NETGEAR Communities

     

    Orbi devices are very different from Nighthawk routers in things like Anywhere Access and Remote Management.


    I will ask the Netgear moderator to move your message.

    In the meantime you could visit the support pages:

    Support | NETGEAR

    Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Look at the label on the device for the model number.

    You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.

    I mention it because Netgear stopped supplying printed manuals and CD versions some years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.

      I think I'll just use it as it. Thanks for your input.
