Are you trying this from a remote location outside the home or trying this while at home on the same network?

Re: Disable external Access
Microchip8 - I did not turn it on and would not enable that, however, I did update the router 2 weeks ago. How do I turn it off? I have looked through all the settings and nothing stands out.
michaelkenward- I would like to disable HTTP access from my external NAT. Internally is fine but I do not want exposure externally.

External http access isn't enabled.
Netgear disabled external ways in when it killed remote management and and ReadyCLOUD.

Re: Disable external Access
When I hit my external ip, issued by the ISP, I get a prompt for a login for routerlogin.net. How do I get rid of this prompt?

Re: Disable external Access
Check for Remote Access features under advanced Tab, Security or Admin. If you seen check box for this feature, uncheck the box and apply.

I do not have Remote Access features anywhere. My FW is V1.0.11.216_10.2.122, which was the latest 2 weeks ago.

Re: Disable external Access
You are 100% correct. I was hitting my external nat from inside to the outside and did not even think to test it completely offsite. Thanks everyone for the help.

Re: Disable external Access
Ya if your on the LAN side, data is still going to get to the router on this side.
Try at a remote location away from home. Shouldn't see the log in for the router here.
Good Luck.
