The app won't update with the current device status. I can't do anything other than change network info. It's saying my son's computer isn't connected (IP doesn't show up on the list), but his computer is connected and on the internet. I don't know what to do anymore with this. Modem/router seems fine, but the app just isn't working.

Was told I had to use this app to set up my Arris SB8200 cable modem. In fact, it only works for the router modem combo. So, the instructions in the in-box brochure are wrong. Spent a very frustrating phone call with a guy in India & got nowhere. How do they get away w/ telling you to download an app that you can't actually use in the packaging for the product?? I was really happy with my old modem but I guess it's time to switch to Netgear! This is ridiculous! So disappointed w/ this company.

Honestly, as much as I would love having a working mesh system (if I could actually get it installed), this app has often failed to connect to my routers, and the customer service often puts me on hold. Out of the 3 times I've called over the past 10 hours, there have been multiple trial and error approaches to fixing my internet connection. It is unfortunate.
