Hi is there a way that when my house electric power goes off and then the electric power goes back on my Netgear XR500 WIFI is off. I need it on so that I don't have to press the buttons on the unit when the light goes back on. There must be a setting for this. Please help. I do have the latest firmware and all the updates installed.
Solved! Go to Solution.

You are correct for some weird reason when I rebooted both ways it started WIFI automatically. So I thank you but I don't know what happen that it did not work in the morning.

Re: Netgear XR500 reboot and restart WIFI
Thank you but no I don't have to do the setup again all I have to do is press the WIFI button to turn on the router. But this should be automatic once the router is on Wifi should also turn on without me having to press the button. Even after a normal reboot Wifi button is not lit and is not Wifi is not on.

By unplugging it. But my cheaper routers would just connect to Wifi if I did it the same way without any issue.
