r6100 wifi quit working
I have an R6100 router. It has always worked well, but now the wifi does not work.
It is plugged into a cable modem. My computer shows that the wifi is going, but I cannot get on the internet...

Greetings,
Next step it to perform internet seup from the Basic Tab in the routers user interface. Let us know if this resolves.
Also, have you or the ISP changed out the modem recently?

michaelkenward...Thanks for your suggestions! I did as you suggested (and have done it several times before)...still no change. The internet light stays amber. The wifi light is blue.
My computer sees the wifi, but will not connect to the internet, so...no inernet connection.
The router is R6100
The modem is E31N2V1 from Spectrum / Charter..
If I plug the modem directly into my computer, I get internet, just not thru the router.
Any other suggestions?

Thanks! The problem started with my previous modem, but I was able to get wifi working again. Spectrum sent me a new modem, now the wifi will not connect.
I did the internet setup last night and it didn't help. I will try it again. Thanks!
