rax20 when plugging in modem to router my computer gets internet but router amber stays on
3 Replies
Funnily enough i was planning on making a topic about this as i have the exact same thing, ever since i've owned the RAX20 the amber light randomly comes on and stays on until you do a factory reboot and nothing is showing in logs after the amber light has come on.
My RAX20 has had about 3 firmware upgrades and multiple factory resets since i've owned it and it still randomly comes on?
New RAX20 that I can't get to connect to my network by Spectrum cable modem. I've gone through the rebooting procedure and either the router amber goes off and I get no internet on my computer or it stays on and I do get internet on the computer. This is preventing my login to Netgear to setup the router. I can't understand how I get my network through the router without it recognizing it. Every time I try to use router login or the ISP in the browser it fails to connect. How do I correct this very frustrating problem? The Nighthawk app wont work- gets an error. I tried calling the support phone and I get a guy who winds up trying to sell me a network firewall in order to hook up my router. My Win10 already has a network firewall built in. The support phone number was in the Nighthawk app.
What modem/gateway is it connected to?
What led is amber?
