Hello Buzcag1

 

Welcome to the community!

 

When you say router stopped working, do you mean no lights on the router?

What buttons were pushed? Did you try resetting the unit by using a paperclip?

What lights are turned on?

Are you still getting IP address from the router when you connect a computer directly to it?

Kindly let us know more details to assist you. In any case, try to follow the steps provided on this link and see if it will help you get the connection back.
