2.4GHZ Band not broadcasting
My Netgear is not broadcasting the SSID on the 2.4GHz range. It says its enabled but it no devices can see it. My 5 GHZ band is fine and working. I am on the latest firmware I think at V1.0.2.80. It was working all day and just stopped. What is going on?
Try to re-upload the latest firmware once again and then reset.
Once done, reconfigure the router and see if you can get it up and running again.

Welcome to the community, mgeorge
What's the exact model and version of your router? Is it WNDR4300 or WNDR4300v2?
Is the 2.4GHz light still on or off?
You may want try to reinstall the firmware and then do a factory reset afterwards.
