IOS Genie app with firmware 1.0.1.18
I updated my R7900 Nighthawk router to firmware 1.0.1.18 and was glad to see mobile support for VPN services. Unfortunatly, the Genie app on my phone has a few issues with this firmware. The biggest issue is I can't see the network map and therfore can't pause the cennection of specific devices (a rather important feature as I have two teenage boys at home!). I've deleted and reinstalled the app on the phone - didn't fix it. Degraded the firmware back to 1.0.1.12, it all works. Except I can't set up VPN on a mobile device now. I even went to the extent of going to .18, setting up and verifying VPN on my phone, downgrading to .12 just on the off chance the VPN would still work. As I expected, that didn't work. Has anyone else had this problem with 1.0.1.18? Any solutions? How about an app update or new firmware from Netgear??Genie Network Map: In App (multiple Android) vs. Genie App on Windows and macO vs. Connected Devices
DUT: Genie 3.2.12 on Android 7.1.1 (Nexus 9), and on Android 7.1.2 (Nexus 6P); Genie Version 2.4.38 on Windows, and R9000 1.2.0.16 Can't get rid of the impression that something basic is basically broken with the handling of Attached Devices on the Nighthawk Router Genie UI, the Network Map. Not two show the same number and the same devices. Manual refresh in the same second, closing and re-open App, ... does not help. Is this just me?
