There is a physical button to toggle the Wi-Fi radios. Push it for 2 seconds to toggle the state.

Running low on ideas. Check the antennas and make sure they are properly attached.
If the router is plugged into a power strip, try plugging it directly into the wall outlet.
Try re-installing the firmware.

Thank you! I was having issues with an R7500 wireless output. Didn't relize those were buttons. I tried calling Netgear and got sent to India. Apparently the punishment for asking to be transferred to the US is now you have to call again. Every other call is routed between the two. I gave up and found you wonderful answer. Thanks again. BTW it was my 2 year old grandson who had discovered they were buttons in the first place... lol
