Unable to access routerlogin.net
Hello I'm a not a tech, I'm a beginner and senior citizen too, so be kind. AT&T U-verse 5268ac GATEWAY dual band router AT&T Cisco VEN401-AT Access Point (talks to TV boxes) NETGEAR WNR2500RP-...
Bit the bullet, and did a hard reset of the GATEWAU which broke the link to the NETGEAR, and was able to login wirelessly to the Gateway and restore the SSID's, and all is good with computers, printers and TVs, and can get to routerlogin.net or by using the assigned IP address.
I'm worried because I just got a message from A&T about my GATEWAY settings being changed, and action may be required. If they take action, I'll probably be in the same boat I've been in for the past 3 weeks!
The whole thing problem was an AT&T setting that was preventing me from reaching both my NETGEAR and the GATEWAY.

That is a complicated portfolio of kit.
How is it all connected?
Is the Access Point plugged into the Gateway?
The WNR2500RP is now an ageing (2012), and basic router.
If you have an Ethernet outlet on the Gateway, you might find it easier to dump the WNR2500RP abd replace it with Powerline Ethernet. You can then use that for wired Ethernet to printers and computer. Powerline is also good for Smart TVs that have Ethernet.
Simplifying the network and getting back to basics might make life easier.
