XR500 Wifi Randomly Stopped and will not reconnect
I randomly had all wifi devices go offline. I looked an in the Device manager only deviced wired (my PC) works. No settings have changed. All wifi devices show offline as there is no wifi signal. Whe...
I also tried plugging another router into the XR and a gaming system. Those both show and work fine as well. Just everything wifi doesn't. I can use everything on wifi through the other router but obviously I don't want to set up things on another network for 30 devices.
Did your firmware get updated? What version of firmware are you running?
Sounds like there may be a hardware failure with the wireless module in the router.
I am running V2.3.2.104-DumaOS3.0-Beta, everything was fine until this morning.
I just went to firmware V2.3.2.66 to see if that helps and it didn't fix anything.
Since you have tried a different firmware with the same results I would suspect a hardware failure.
