What files have stopped showing on your TV? Files on a USB drive somewhere?

I don't know how your TV "sees" files – devices have different approaches and app – but if the TV is looking for a "media server" you should check that this is enabled on your R6400.

Visit the support pages:

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.

Check the section in the manual Specify ReadyDLNA Media Server Settings.

You may also have to adjust some settings on the TV.

It might help if you told people what the modem is in front of this router, if there is one. The make and model number could be useful. Is it, by any chance, also a router, with a set of LAN ports on the back?

The reason for asking is that a lot of people turn up here trying to put a router behind a modem that is also a router. That can complicate troubleshooting.
