Nighthwark 8000 router doesn't accept new device connections, from multiple devices
I have a Netgear X6 8000 that supports 2.4 and 2 different 5.0 networks, because this router has two independent 5.0 radios. This router has the latest available firmware for this device, 1.0.4.84_1...
Sometimes old settings can cause issue when you upgrade firmware. Its why one of our first recommendations for those having issues after an update is to try a factory reset and set it up from scratch (not from a backup).
Hope removing the special characters helps! I know roku occasionally has issues with those.
1.What modem/gateway is the router connected to?
2. How old is the router?
3. Any special characters or spaces in the SSID/password? If so, remove them. Roku's don't always play nicely with them
4. Has a factory reset been tried lately? The R8000 had quite a few firmware changes.
Forgot to say that I really appreciate this reply. It's specific and something I can do.
