Hi Michael,
Thanks for your tips and instruction. I did all as requested:
- 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 to connect.
- Turn on computers and rest of network.
Now, I have internet access. Many thanks again
Best regards
I hate that there is no way to contact an actual person but you have 90 compimetary support service! How do you have that when you cannot call anyone...Please help
my Netgear says I am connected but my phone, tv, and computer say other wise
Hi there,
This is assuming that you have internet from your Modem:
Try this: remove the Ethernet Cable from your router & connect it to your laptop and check for Internet Access. If you can access the internet, then re attach the cable to router. Next, un-plug the router power supply and wait for a minute or two, then reconnect power, wait for all LEDs on router light up. At the Router, attach a device that you want internet to via Ethernet cable & check for internet access.
