Did Netgear dispose of the 192.168.1.1 admin page? (alien.top)

I know, Netgear. Don't worry, I'm getting ready to upgrade to higher grade equipment. 192.168.1.1 is completely gone for me, as well as routerlogin.net or routerlogin.com. They redirect to Netgear's website.

I can't get into the admin page anymore on 192.168.1.1 so I can't control anything like monitoring connected devices. The app they're forcing is extremely basic and clunky but I have it set up.

If this can't be solved, or even if it is, what should I be looking for in my next build? Dream Router with U6+ satellites? Or is there a single AP y'all recommend that would be good for a medium sized home?

My needs aren't that great, likely don't need an enterprise grade setup. I'm hardwired most of the time. Single long-range modern router + old router as an AP might be enough.

I would try to factory reset it and see if there is an 'I don't have a smartphone' option or similar that shows up when you first load the webpage.

I helped a family member set up a Nighthawk router they bought which was trying to force a mobile app, but clicking that link on the initial setup page seemed to bypass is permanently.
