What is that modem? Make and model?
After I updated the firmware for the R6220 router I finally got it to work thinking that was the issue.
How did you update the firmware and what version did you install?
When you change things on the network, be sure to restart devices in the correct order.
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
- Turn off and unplug modem.
- Turn off router and computers.
- Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
- Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
- Turn on computers and rest of network.
