Hi all
All of a sudden our Net Gear quit sending us WiFi. We have done everything. Unplugged and plugged back in. Plugged a LAN line into computer to router to try and work with net gear people. No luck.We had gotten a new password set up in system. Still can't connect. It now says incorrect password.?....?
to top it all off my son thought we'd fix it by doing a factory reset. So then we used the password on back of router. Nope. Again incorrect password. Can anyone help?
we are using up our data as we cannot connect to WiFi.
Case closed.
For all you know about out there, here is what happened.
I gave netgear one more try. Here is what he had us do. Simply unplug the router from the outlet. Wait 90 seconds. Plug back in. All done. Back up running. Yes a simple unplug from the wall did it.
merry christmas

you have an old router but I'd try to reinstall the firmware and see if it revives the wifi, otherwise it might be time to buy something newer. That router is over 10 years old right?
On the back of the router, theres a wifi on/off button.
Push and hold it for 2 seconds.
