My Network: AX3600 Insight Managed Router (Firmware version 10.2.0.16), AX1800 Mesh Extender (Firmware version 1.0.3.36) Issue: I recently got a new router and a range extender to help cover my whole house, but I’m running into a weird issue. When any device (phone, desktop PC, laptop, iPad) connects via the extender, it loses the ability to connect to some websites. For instance, I can connect to Facebook fine, but if I try to connect to Twitter, it fails to load. When I try to connect to those sites via the Wi-Fi from the router, everything loads perfectly. Attempted Fixes: Factory reset of both devices, firmware update, cycling both devices and the modem, cursing.5.1KViews0likes6CommentsOrbi RBR50 parental controls not working
I have an RBR50 and two RBS50 satellites that work great. I purchased a Parental Controls subscription about 2 years ago, and I noticed in the last 3 months that it no longer works. I have been attempting to fix this issue for a few weeks now but to no avail. Specifically, I have reset my Orbi system several times, and I have updated my firmware twice. The router and two satellites are now running the latest v2.7.5.4 Completely stumped and frustrated…551Views0likes1CommentRouter web software to manage individual devices.
Hello, I am looking for a router that would have the ability using either a browser or mobile app, that would allow me to restart the wi-fi on an individual device. Right now, the router I am using I have to turn off wi-fi for all devices in order to restart the wi-fi on 2 cameras that have issues (long story). So I would like to just be able to select the device that would "appear not online" and restart the wi-fi, avoiding having to do this for the entire wi-fi system. Right now doing that with these 2 cameras fixes the issue. i can only control the priority of internet on these cameras, but i want to control the wi-fi connection to it. Does any router in the Netgear (home) space allow this to happen?451Views0likes3CommentsA6100 drivers crash without error during install section

I have a computer running Netgear USB Control Center/ReadyShare Printer version 1.8, with driver version 1.83.35. The software works great to connect to my router's USB printer. The only version of USB Control Center that I have been able to find on Netgear's website is version 1.35. That 1.35 version works, but not as well as version 1.8. What happened to version 1.8? Is it still available somewhere?731Views0likes2CommentsNIGHTHAWK EX7000 AC1900 WI-FI RANGE EXTENDER WON'T CONNECT TO NIGHTHAWK APP
The Nighthawk app sees my SSID from the Nighthawk Ex7000 Ac1900 Wi-Fi Range Extender but will not connect. The range extender is working properly, devices are connected and operating but the Nighthawk app will not connect. Suggestions?931Views0likes4CommentsCIRCLE & APPLE TV
I am using the Orbi RBR20 with integrated Circle. Circle is not seeing Apple TV traffic. I have tried it connected by LAN and wireless. I have verifed the MAC address being used by the Apple TV matches the one shown on the router for the Apple TV (I have previously seen different MAC addresses being logged for the Apple TV). There was a very brief period of time when the Apple TV traffic was recorded/monitored/controlled by Circle. That was when I first switched it from wired LAN to wifi, but I cannot get it to do so again. I have found no one else posting a similar problem on any forum. Does anyone have any idea of what may be going on?704Views0likes1CommentParental Profile Device Limit Bug
If you have more than 20 devices in the default home profile, placing the, for example, 24th item into a child profile. It can’t be removed and put back into the default home profile without paying for parental controls because you “can’t have a profile over 20 devices.” So I would have to pay to no longer have a device in a profile for parental controls because it can’t go back to the default. That makes no sense. Y’all missed a check in the code to make sure the device limit doesn’t apply for the default home profile that every device is automatically added to.

We are having trouble with our kids playing games on school Chrome books. I can find the IP address on the Chrome book but cannot find it in the Orbi app. Why are they (4 chrome books) hidden in the app. I want to be able to pause their connection.
