    I did not get this working and bought an R6900P, which does work. Also, I was able to register the new R6900P. Thank you all.....

    Hi flute,

     

    What are the lights on the front panel of the router?

    Press the wireless button.

      Thank you for answering. The 5 and 2.4 lights were out and I could not get anything to work. Plus I knowcked out  our Mini Tivo during the adventure. I bought a new Netgear router at Costco because I had incurred extra data charges on my cell phone. I just let this problem go for too long. The costco reviews of Netgear routers are very bad, but that is all they have at our local warehouse. We are remote and captive consumers.....

        Now I cannot register my new router R6900 with Netgear because I already have an account under my email address. How do other people handle this problem?
