The same thing happened to me when Netgear updated the firmware.
I was not nitified of a software update, but the radio signal was disabled.
Quick remedy was to push radio button icon on front (top) of router (second from right)
To fix underlying issue, the firmware needed updating.
BUT, auto update did not detect new firmware.
SO I had to go to Netgear site and enter my machine to find download.
Download the software update onto my computer desktop.
THEN, go back to
routerlogin.net
OR type in: 192.168.1.1
to get to firmware update page
then manually, upload the software.
Several blocks were present along the way, so that I could not do this myself.
I had to pay $80 for a service contract to fix the issue.
Shame on Netgear.
