Nighthawk R7000 and Orbi AX6000, when I try to log into Router it always accesses AX6000 not R7000
Was able to successfully setup both Routers, Nighthawk first/Orbi next. Was able to log into both Routers setup at the time using Chrome browser or corresponding iOS app. Tried to log into Nighthawk later while connected to the network and only the Orbi would open up, it doesn't matter if I try Chrome browser or iOS Nighthawk app. iOS Nighthawk app has trouble seeing the Nighthawk Router and wants to open Orbi. Nighthawk Router is used for ExpressVPN use.
Any suggestions how I can access both Routers?

"AX6000" is a speed, not a model number. Look for "Model" on the
product label. Firmware version? Connected to what?

"trouble"? As usual, showing actual actions (commands) with their
actual results (error messages, LED indicators, ...) can be more helpful
than vague descriptions or interpretations.

Does that mean that you loaded ExpressVPN firmware onto the R7000?

If you want to use a Netgear app, then I'd expect that running
Netgear firmware on the devices might help. For non-Netgear firmware,
I'd consult the third-party firmware vendor for advice.

Comcast -> CM1200-100NAS -> Orbi Router (RBR850) -> R7000
Firmware for both updated as of Saturday to current
Not home right now, but can't connect to Nighthawk to tell.
Nighthawk app looks for Nighthawk then tells me to open Orbi. The routers are working connectivity to the box itself is my question. Will check with ExpressVPN when I get home, and check with them as well.
Thank you.
