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've just replaced my netgear nighthawk x6s, and my gateway is/was fine on my unit. That being said, the most recent firmware is currently broken and old (in true netgear fashion), so perhaps it is a problem if the router has a new firmware update.

I did upgrade, then downgrade the firmware before I boxed it up and replaced it, however but both versions are not new releases, by far.

Maybe push a pin in the reset button and see if it returns.

ipconfig /all (in a cmd prompt should show your current gateway)

Best of luck!
