Netgear XR700 wifi router separate SSID's issue
Having an issue with my Nighthawk XR700 router. Has been working OK until yesterday. On the most current firmware. I've configured the router with Smart Connect disabled and using two separate SSID's ...
Did you try setting it up NOT using the backup configuration? it wouldn't be the first time something was corrupt in a backup
Yes was thinking the same so I set up as default then went to configure wifi as two separate SSID's. That's where I'm having the issue. As soon as I try to disable Smart Connect and set up separate SSID's, the router stops working. No wifi, no Ethernet port access to internet. I have the same firmware version 1.0.1.50. Was working before. Now noticing a lag in wifi speed. Could router be on its last leg? I do have a warranty plan on it now.
- The SSIDs you're making and the passwords you're using when splitting them are you using symbols at all?
