Location for Netgear app

I've changed downstairs in family room my locations of laptop and desktop after remodeling. Desktop was downstairs hard wired to internet through the NetGear WIFI and a NetGear extender in my shop/office, Now they're switched positions and I'm using WIFI for laptop downstairs (not hard wired) and NetGear WIFI extender for the desktop in shop/office. My desktop did have the NetGear app but was lost during an upgrade on my hard drive. 

So my question is which location would be best to download the NetGear App so I can register and do crirical updates? 

Model: C7000|Nighthawk - AC1900 WiFi Cable Modem Router

From Windows Store if they have it there.

   First, start your own new thread for your own new problem, instead of
diverting this old, unrelated thread.

 

> Model: R8000|Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Smart WIFI Router

 

   Second, when you do that, decide on _which_ model, "RX8000" or
"R8000".  Look for "Model" on the product label.

 

   Third, what was your actual goal?  _Why_ do you want to "pair" these
devices (whatever that means to you)?

 

   If your goal was to extend the wireless network coverage of your
C7000v2, then visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your (actual)
model number ("R8000"?), and look for Documentation.  Get the User
Manual.  Read.  Look for "Use the Router as a Wireless Access Point".


   General advice: You might have more success if you described the
actual problem which you are trying to solve, rather than asking how to
implement some particular "solution" (like, say, "pair this gizmo with
that gizmo"), which may have little or nothing to do with the actual
problem (whatever it might be).

 

   Including a few accurate facts might not hurt, either.
