Thanks very much for your message.
Do the led lights come on for it?
Yes, although every button except for the double arrows is now faint.
Did the on/off button get hit? (both for power and wifi on/off)
The on/off button is on; the unit has throughput but no WiFi signal
The wifi on/off button needs to be pushed for 2 seconds .
There are only two buttons on the X6: a WPS button (which is for an automated connect) and the on-off button. There is no physical WiFi button.

Its does have a wifi on/off button.
Not sure what router you have as AC2200 is a speed and not a model.
But go to netgear.com/support/
type in its actual model number.
it'll take you to the support site with manuals. the manual goes over which led is the wifi on/off button. push and hold it for 2 seconds.
