Apple TV cannot connect to C3700 Modem/Router

I have a Model C3700 which will not connect to Apple TV.  Using the Netgear firmware, and click on the Wireless tab.  I can see all iphones and ipads connected.  I do not see the Apple TV.  In addition, the Remote application on the iPad does not show Apple TV.  In iTunes, I have verified Homesharing is on.   When I use the Ethernet cord from C3700 to the Apple TV and look at the Wired tab, I can see the Apple TV.  Using my TV and Apple TV Settings, I go to General-Network and connect to the NetGear C3700 WiFi.  But when I return to the Menu, I do not see any Apple TV applications, but only my Home Shared computer.

 

So two things,  can I connect C3700 wirelessly to Apple TV?  If not, how can I see the Apple TV application when I am wired via Ethernet.

    Hello oldcroat 

     

    Make sure your apple TV is up to date with the software and firmware. Also you may want to check if you need to do any port forwarding.
