After the router device is added successfully you can change the polling interval (set to 1 minute as default). To setup go to “Devices” and add the Netgear router by filling in the admin password. Your Homey should be connected inside the LAN part of the router, not from outside (WAN). When using the router in Access Point (AP) mode, you will not have all functionality, e.g. The app is intended for netgear devices that work in Router mode.
