Router not working
Unit turns on and the first 2 lights on left are on, but no other activity. Not found on any wifi searches within home... Like it doesn't exist anymore - was working just fine!
Well done. Don't beat yourself up. You are not the first person, and won't be the last, to be confused by those "buttons".
Mark you reply as "solved" and it could help one of those later victims to find the solution.

There is a section in the manual on using the lights to troubeshoot:
>>> R6400 | Product | Support | NETGEAR <<<
See page 169.
Tried flicking the wifi switch? It is the WiFi On/Off button with LED described on page 11.
- Thank you, I'll give that a look!
- Well embarrassingly enough, you led directly to the problem! I discovered my wifi light (which I was unaware was also a button) was somehow turned off! Turning back on solved all my ills! Thank you partner!
