Ratings and reviews

This is an app for setting up your router. It does exactly that and not a whole lot more. Kinda junk, makes you create an account or sign in if you bought this trash before. I got a free router and used this app to set it up at my mom's. It worked. Took about 45 minutes waiting on this router to find Internet. The app is slow compared to your router it takes it a while to catch up

Frustrating- Even though the modem had internet, the router would not connect to it. Several days later I was finally able to get to the internet via the mesh router (MR70). Then the devices that now had access, stopped having access. I had to use a browser to get to the Security Access Control to turn it off. Everytime I tried to unblock devices, it would not save using the Apply button at the bottom of the page. In the App, there was no toggle buttons to control access as in the screenshot.

*update* still broken. Wants me to login using admin credentials and after entering password, says routher is unreachable. Yet I'm connected to network with my phone. Broken app. After the last update months ago, its unresponsive. Use to work great but now everytime I open it, I have to sign in then it locks my phone up for a few minutes until I get the pop up saying its unresponsive and close app. I guess since I can not use the app, no reason to continue buying netgear products either.
