C7000v2
My Netgear C7000v2 router needs a firmware upgrade. When I enter the Netgear app, I see a screen saying "Firmware Out Of Date." There are two buttons: the first says "Open router login.net", which takes me to a website that tells me to download the app, which i already have. The second says "Connect with anywhere access", which when clicked on, displays the following message: "No devices available. to remotely manage a netgear router, enable the feature by connecting your routers wifi and then going to menu settings anywhere access within the app." Again, my wifi is working and I have the app installed, but I can't get to settings to establish anywhere access, because all I can access within the app is the firmware out of date page. Re installing the app has not helped.

The app should not tell you to update the firmware on a cable modem because you cannot update the firmware. That is down to your ISP.
