Is there any other lights on?
have you tried pushing the wifi on/off button for 2 seconds? maybe it got hit in the move.
The WiFi on/off button has been pushed for two seconds (on several attempts).
Green lights:
- WiFi
- Downstream
- Upstream
- Internet
- Ethernet
Orange (not red) light:
- Power
No lights:
- WPS button
- 2.4 Ghz
- 5 Ghz
- USB
