WNR2000v-3 Router

I just rebooted my router and lost my connection to a Roku device.  My cell phone won't connect any longer either.  So I think the whole Wifi network is off.  I set it up long ago enough that I don't remember all the things I did.  I remember it as not being terribly difficult.  I can't figure out how to get it working again.  I set up another network for my husband and his restart didn't disconnect any of his wireless devices.  Can anyone help?  The home router is a model WMR2000v3.

    I tried again after several hours and surprise!  It connected.  Earlier, I was getting messages from my devices that no internet connection was detected.  I have no idea what changed, but it didn't appear to be anything I did.  So I've now connected the internet with my streaming device and with my cell phone.  I'm very relieved.  Thanks to michaelkenward for trying to help.

  • Are the wifi LEDs lit on the device?

     

    Do you have wired devices that can connect? Or is the whole Internet down?

      Yes I did have wired devices that could connect.  But it turned out that the solution was very simple.  I waited (partly out of frustration I turned to doing something else) and after an hour or so the system had found my wireless signal and I was able to complete the set-up.  Thank you so much for responding!
