NETGEAR Nighthawk - WiFi App

I’ve mentioned this to Support many times, but the Parental Control app really needs improvement when it comes to performance. The app is very slow to open and start sessions, and sometimes it can take several minutes just to reload. For example, if I try to resume a blocked device, it can take more than 5 minutes before the session actually starts. The app often just keeps showing the spinning loading circle. I’m using a 2 Gbps fiber connection, so this does not appear to be an issue with my internet speed. I also notice the same problem when using LTE or when I’m away from home—the app can take around 5 minutes just to load. Compared with the ASUS Router app, resuming a session is much faster and more responsive. I hope the development team can look into the app’s performance, loading time, and session response time. This is especially important because parental controls need to respond quickly when we need to pause or resume a device.

Very easy and well designed app to setup a replacement router. Quick, clear, and easily customizable to allow devices to find the new router instead of its out of the box name.
