Well, maybe something NG will look at. Would be up them to make changes. I presume some of this would be customer or how many instances of bad experiences with this issue.

Does the R7000 support https access to the local Netgear Genie Web UI at all (or already)?
https://routerlogin.net (and of course http://routerlogin.net) works for me on R7800
I tried https://routerlogin.net/ on Firefox and got the same error? http://routerlogin.net/ works fine? It even fails on MS Edge?
Does the OS have something to do with this? Or the F/W version? I'm on W10 V1709 and the V1.0.9.26 F/W.
Don't think so, I entered in Firefox https://192.168.1.1/, and this is what I get:
==========
Unable to connect
Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at 192.168.1.1.
The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer’s network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.============
http://192.168.1.1 works fine. Does it work for you?
