I read that AP mode can affect this? but I see no reason why the app shouldnt work. I can access the web settings via the IP address perfectly fine but its really annoying that I cant use the app. If anyone can help that would be great. Thanks

I have Orbi in AP mode.

The Orbi app has no problem in finding and managing the Orbi router.

When I open the orbi app it says 'Wifi not detected' and it acts as if I have never set up my orbi before.

Is that the exact message that you see when you try to connect?

I ask because the latest version of the Android app is bust for some people. It just won't start.

You don't say if you are Android or iOS. In the past it has worked to uninstall and reinstall the app.

You could also see if Anywhere Access, using the Netgear cloud service, works.
