Sorry about that.
When you did the power cycling did you do it in the right order?
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:- Turn off and unplug modem.
- Turn off router and computers.
- Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
- Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it connect.
- Turn on computers and rest of network.
If you visit the support pages:
Support | NETGEAR
you can feed in your model number and find the documentation for your hardware.
Check the section that deals with troubleshooting with the LEDs.

Might be a hint.
Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation. Get the User Manual (at least). Read. Look for the
LED descriptions and "Troubleshoot". Pay particular attention to the
"WiFi On/Off button with LED". Did you press it? (Further reading
might be helpful, too.)

About what, exactly are you "Sorry"?

Oh, I see. It's much more charming when _you_ tell someone to read
the documentation than when I do it.
