Keep me signed in - not working

[Michael_Oz]

I click this option every time I sign in, yet I keep having to sign in.

There are a bunch of cookies for a range of netgear.com addresses, so it doesn't look like cookies are blocked, so I presume the expiry is set low??

If you tell me what cookie is used for this I can look it up.

Hi @Michael_Oz , you might want to check, whether your browser is cleaning all cookies and site data when it is closed. In Firefox for example you go to /Settings/Privacy&Security/CookiesAndSiteData. If the box "Delete cookies and site data when firefox is closed" is checked you might have found the culprit. With other browsers it is similar.

Kind regards

I don't close my browsers often, certainly did not close them when I noticed this.

If the webmasters can tell me which cookie you use to track this I can check it.

   Same here.  The lifetime is certainly not longer than 24h.

Looking at cookies, if you check the box, this cookie is created with 24h expiry.

So not much of 'keep' happening.
