Logon Timed Out, Please Try Again. If issue is persistent, try rebooting your device

I have two nighthawk 9000 routers. One in MN and one in CO. Same model and same firmware Rev. I can connect to my Colorado router Remotely from Minnesota. However I get a log in timeout message every time I try to connect to my local router here in Minnesota. What is going on? I rebooted the router I rebooted my phone I have cleared the cache on the app.

Login how? Local wifi? Anywhere Access?

 

Nighawk app? (iOS or Android?) Something else?

 

I assume that this is the R9000.

 

What firmware version?

 

What modem/gateway/ONT sits between them and the Internet?

  1. Nighthawk App - V2.20.3.2525
  2. Android - V12
  3. R9000 - firmware  V1.0.5.42
  4. Netgear CM1100 Cable Modem to Xfinity feed
  5. I can access my router in Colorado by using anywhere access from MN
  6. I cannot access my local router using local WiFi in MN while sitting in the same room.
  7. I can log in to the router webpage from my pc

 

Thanks

Have you tried setting up the local router for Anywhere Access?

 

I also manage a couple of routers from the Android app and both connect happily as Anywhere Access.

 

At the moment (APP V2.20.3.2515) "Local Connection" is  bust.

 

It asks for login credentials ans then instantly times out demanding a reboot.

 

The app is needs fixing.

I've done it before, obviously, but I don't see how to access the local router from the app using anywhere access.  Thank you.

Take it through the set up process again?

 

That still works here.

That didn't work.  I'll keep googling. Thanks

You might get better luck in the apps section here.

I cannot log in to my local router from the app.  That is the issue.  When I try to login, I sometimes get the timeout message before I even have a chance to to enter my password!   

 

I've tried deleting the app's cache but that didn't help.  I don't want to delete the data not reinstall the app because I am successfully connected to my remote router via access anywhere.

 

Thanks

The apps are bust.

That will take you down a rabbit hole of impressive length.

 

We are now well into three-figure numbers for those reports.

 I just wish Netgear would chime in.  At least I'm not alone  🙄

I guess they are just too embarrassed to own up.

 

It sure doesn't go down well with users who can easily interpret silence as insouciance.

I started experiencing the same issue this week. Please let me know if you have been able to find a resolution as the NetGear Tech Support folks are not of much help...

A subsequent update to the app fixed it for me.  Good luck!
