I have done a factory reset. I did try enabling remote management. Then waiting and disabling similar to a previous defect.
I am using firmware V1.0.1.90.
The default remote management url for Netgear is https://ipaddress:8443. The url I am referring to which is exposed is different hence the original request.
If people are responding with responses like "it's ok to have it exposed" it's Pleaselike using Amazon...thank you but please refrain from responding as exposing administrative interfaces to routers fro. External network locations is not even close to the same thing as a publicly facing site.
Have things changed with the new firmware update? 1.0.1.108? As said if you can actually log in then report this as a security bug ASAP, if you can just but see a HTTP login but cant actually log into the router itself then as much of a pain as it is you are going to have to wait till netgear decides to use HTTPS. Contact them as many of us have and complain.
