Netgear Genie & ORBI CBR40

Hello,  Do I really need the netgear genie running on my computer (or at all)  if we have the ORBI CBR40?  Suddenly it seems to be taking up a bunch of memory and my hard drive is constantly running ...

    No, Genie isn't supported on Orbi systems. 

    So use the CBR40s web page to manage the system and you can use the Orbi app for simple use.
