Nighthawk R7000 Won't connect
I purchased this router on July 7, 2015. I was able to set it up fine, and it was working perfect. All of a sudden, it stopped work. It won't send out a wifi signal to none of my devices. I am runnin...
OMG, that's what the issue was! I was at the computer shop today, and the guy told me to bring it back in, he wanted to check something. I looked at the power plug, and tried one that was the same, and it worked. I feel like a **bleep**. So much frustration. Wish they would have sent those accessories with it. I never would have thought to check that, because it was getting power to it. Thanks for all the help.
Couple things to try:
1. I am sure you reconfigured or restored router configuration from saved one since you
reset the router.
2. Turn of everything, modem, router, your PC - wait for 1 min. or so -them turn on modem,
wait a few seconds for modem to settle down, then turn on our router, wait a few seconds,
then PC.
Problem solved? If not from PC use command ipconfig /all, what do you see? If still no good,
ipconfig /renew, still no good? then ipconfig /flushdns let us know the result.
Good luck.
