Nighthawk internet but no wifi
Bought my nighthawk about a week ago. Was working good. Then the other night wifi stopped working. Netgear tech couldn't figure out the problem. Any ideas what the issue could be?

Check this: How do I turn my NETGEAR router’s wireless radios on and off using the WiFi On/Off button? - the most common issue if any.

Not helped by the fact that it isn't obvious on the device itself that the indicator LED is also a switch.
Cat owners, and parents of toddlers, should also pay particular attention to this switch. These animals can interfere with nice glowing lights.

The industrial design massively changed - it's much more than a hard to see small LED button now.

Sure, the more obvious it becomes 8-)

Neat. If that is the model that roksakure has purchased.
Then again, the design of that thing is "ugly as buggery", to use an old English saying.
My MR90 doesn't even have an on/off switch for the wifi. Much nicer design though.
