Two different issues:

1) I seemed to have turned off wifi on my router and can't turn it on. I press on the router furthest right buttom but it does not turn on. And on the Advanced settings though it says wifi is off, in the set-up it says that Wireless app is on (for both the 2.4 GHz and the 5 GHz.  Maybe the router is too old? But it was working fine. Help!

 

2) My firmware is not updating. I checked and as of today, the latest firmware is different that what I have (V1.0.11.106_10.2.100). However, the message is that I am on the latest update. Not sure how to update manually after downloading the update.

 

Any help would be welcome. Thanks!

 

 

  • If you have the C7000 (that you put in your signature) the wifi on/off is the 2nd one from the button. You push and hold it for 2 seconds. 

    Or do you have a different router?
