Same review for both Netgear Genie and Nighthawk iOS apps because both are equally useless for the same reason. The fact that now it seems to have issues more than usualīut cannot get NETGEARGenie to stop showing theīecause Google and community net gear is impossible! It does let local network channel changes and basic information about the network grid of devices etc Only this older Genie or most current works I think I found other places it says “this router doesn’t support that feature “Įnough to say that 50percent of NETGEARGenie is broken This doesn’t mean our Wi-Fi is not working Suddenly we realize there is an impossible situation to locate simple things in manual or community groups about a icon Wi-Fi shows up too left supposed to be the name of the router according to the manual. NETGEARGenie has gotten worse as certain features stop working or say “router doesn’t support this feature” when it did before/ The old xfinity rental never gave me problems, but since buying this one (to save on my monthly xfinity bill), I can’t even get WiFi in my bedroom, in an 800sq ft apartment, with only a hall way in between the router & my bedroom. I also should ad that the netgear C3700 is not as great as all the reviews claimed. Also my neighborhood had an internet outage and when the internet came back on the genie app only shows the device which I have connected to genie on the network app despite the fact that 2 other devices are connected. So I now have devices that I cannot get back on my network. Also if you “pause internet” on one of the devices on your network, that device disappears from the map.now how do I un-pause internet for that device if it’s not showing? Tried accessing the internet again from that device and will not connect and doesn’t prompt the network to show the device. Well NETGEARGenie takes forever just to log in, the even longer to load any of the features such as the network map if it actually does load. NETGEARGenie features made it very desirable considering I could control what devices can connect & block when necessary. NETGEARGenie is one of the reasons I bought the netgear C3700. The system is fairly limited, but I've shown you a way to make it work… And it does work. Just remember, if you go in the opposite direction, (to lock it down) you'll have to reboot the router every time you make an adjustment in that direction. You can change the security level on the fly to Open up the computer. Go to filter level, and select default filter on router, next restart the router from the phone app. ![]() Who's where you lock it in, or loosening up click on your kids, computer. ![]() ![]() Next, went to the phone app network map to find my kids computer. Whoever uses the internet outside of the time window will get DNS error messages. Next, I configured a time window for normal use on the computer, and selected a low security level from morning until evening. Create a base security level in open DNS, and turn it on/off/modify using the phone app.I created an open DNS account, and configured the default security level (without time windows) to custom, and selected everything.
