R7000 wireless network not showing up
R7000 has been working great for years.
Last night I noticed the usual network was not showing up on my laptop.
Cable to house good.
Smart TV good, Netflix, etc.
Splits to wireless router but now that network is not seen.
Cables good.
All of a sudden?
Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

Be sure that the wireless button and LED on the stop of the router is ON and enabled? Sometimes someone can press this button that shuts off the wifi radios. Press it for about 5 seconds if you don't see it ON.

I did try to power on/off last nite.
Musta hit that button as I reached over the top of the device.
Crazy I didn't check that.
All good now.
Thanks for the help!
