AC1750/6400v2 no longer broadcasting 2.4/5ghz and SSID not visible from devices

[Retired_Member]

On all of my devices, my AC1750/6400v2 router is no longer visible and is not broadcasting 2.4/5ghz.  This happened spontaneously. I have restarted my devices, the router, and the modem. Help troubleshooting would be appreciated.

That didn't work and your links weren't helpful.  However, I searched these community forums and found out that pressing the Wifi On/Off button solves the problem. I hope my post is helpful to others!

   Everyone says that.  Some even believe it.  Occasionally, but seldom,
it's true.

   Here's a radical concept:

   _What_, exactly, "didn't work"?

   I'm impressed that you found the link which led directly to the
suggestion, 'Pay particular attention to the "WiFi On/Off button with
LED".  Did you press it?' unhelpful, and then revealed "that pressing
the Wifi On/Off button solves the problem."  Many people couldn't have
managed that feat.

   Many things are possible.

Putting the ol' O N O F F button to the O N position works everytime....

I was able to find an answer on another thread within this forum. Thanks.

   How, exactly?  What's the difference between my suggestion and your
"solution"?

   Thanks for the helpful link.

> _What_, exactly, "didn't work"?

   Still a mystery.

antinode,

I'll give you a kudos for "Great Effort" on your part.

Thanks for being here and working as a volunteer helping all these schmucks weasel their way thru even the trivialist of "button pushing methodology" and then, not receiving even a compliment or a thanks.....

I'll say thanks to ya on their behalf....
