EAX80 Says "Your access point has no Internet access." but it's still working fine.
Hi I have a RAX120 router, two EAX80 and an EX6400 all three set up as access points. Everything is generally working well but all of the AP's display status of "Your access point has no Internet access. Check to make sure that your router has an Internet connection." yet they are all still sending and receiving data fine.
What on earth is going on?
Thanks in advance,
Ray

What modem/gateway is the router connected to?
what does the RAX show?
All of the extenders are showing the same thing?
- RayFieldingAspirantI have a Draytek Vigor 130 modem which is working fine.
The RAX all looks good too.
Both the 2 EAX80's and the EX6400 all show no Internet connection to the router but are all opperating fine.- plemansGuru - Experienced User
Is the vigor in modem only/pass through mode?
Reason I ask is its quite frequent for a router/extender to show offline when their in a double nat.
It wouldn't be out of this realm for the RAX to show online and the extenders offline while in a double nat.

Have probably turned on How do I configure Access Control or MAC Filtering on my NETGEAR router using the router web interface? on your RAX120, and it's blocking the Internet access for the EAX80 and EX6400 LAN IP addresses? Note: This won't block other wireless (or wired devices) from getting their network access by these extenders. This is what you state as "it's still working fine".

Many thanks for your help but unfortunately Access Control is turned off on the router and it always has been.
Interestingly, I did a reboot on all the AP's and for that last few weeks the EX6400 has been showing a connected status. However both the EAX80's still say "Your access point has no Internet access. Check to make sure that your router has an Internet connection."
I'm absolutely stumped.
