Genie popup question at every login
Since the last router update everytime I start up Genie app I always get a caution popup asking to accept or deny incoming connections. I have configured the OS firewall to accept the app to handle known incoming connections but it just keeps on happening on every Genie startup. Is this message asking if I want to accept unfamiliar connections? And how do I configure so I don't get this popup each time I login?

Re: Genie popup question at every login
Running Mac os Sierra 10.12.6
I have the same question? I never know what to answer, when I am asked by the Genie app to Allow or Deny incomming connections each time I restart my Mac??? Does this refer to other devices i have in my home? Such as iphones, computers, ipads, Tv's, Ring doorbell. ETC....ALL OF WHICH ON MY WIFI ??? Or does it refer to OUTSIDERS trying to access my router????? I have googled this to death and cant find an answer??? Thanks to whomever can shed light on this??? If there is a Netgear GURU here, kindly answer the question. Thx

Re: Genie popup question at every login
Hi Dexter - Thank you for following up. I've read thru the replies you've sent, but nothing has worked yet. The Netgear drop-down menu won't even list my correct model number - AC2300 R700P.....grhhh!
