Netgear WNDR3400 WEP is missing
My Dad and I recently tampered with the Netgear WNDR 3400 wireless settings to improve connections for xbox live. I am not 100% certain what changes were made earlier, but for some reason the WEP radio buttons are now missing from the list of security encryptions. The WEP setting used to be present, but now I can't even find it and therefore cannot get a proper password to access the WEP through my brother's laptop and certain game consoles that only support WEP. This could be because of an update for the firmware, but I tried restoring to factory settings and it still doesn't show up. Did Netgear remove WEP settings? What can be done to retrieve this option?

- blademan8NoviceThat worked. Now the service works fine again. It pains me that information as simple as changing the mbps does not across these forums.
