If you are going backwards in release number you might still have them (that is from one of the older recalled beta's). However there is NO guarantee they will work. In cases like that you have to RESET the router and then re-apply manually your setting for proper operation.
If you are moving up from and older official release, like V1.0.4 or older you don't need to reset the router but it is advised. In this case I'd give it a try, have any problems, reset and re-enter is the first thing to try. DO NOT load saved settings from any other version into a new one. That seems to be asking for trouble these days.
And no killhippie i never turned off anything...wmm or anything else...all i do is change my password...thats all ive ever changed
Which version of firmware is currently on the router?
Also, do you by chance have Kaspersky AV? It has been shown that for some reason, Kaspersky wants to block access to the router home page. The workaround was to disable or uninstall it while you need to access the router.
If this isn't your case, then compare the IP information when you have it hard wired vs. wireless. You can do this by typing "ipconfig" in a command terminal window. See if the assigned IP address, netmask and and default gateway are the same between wired vs. wireless connections. You should be able also to use the IP address of the gateway (should be the R7000 IP address on the LAN) as the URL instead of routerlogin.net.
Another interesting thing to look at would be what address "routerlogin.net" resolves to (in the same command window, try "ping routerlogin.net".
