The app cannot connect to your router on your local network

This app does not allow you to connect to your local network. I used to be able to connect prior to upgrading the iOS to 26.6. The app attempt to connect and then put you back into the email Login tab. The email login doesn’t work either.

Worked fine until a few days ago

Now not only can I not login at all, the entire interface just cycles back to the login prompt over and over and over. Making software that is not complete garbage is not that hard. Fix it and DO BETTER!

App sucks

App takes forever to open. Even says no internet at times but internet works fine.

No App Support

After years of Linksys pushing us into using the Linksys App only. They’ve removed support for virtually all Smart and Mesh routers. The app is now useless
