Can't access Modem/Router via WiFi

[Kendrite]

Recently purchased Nighthawk AC1900 and am trying to set it up.

If I connect it via ethernet I can log into the modems login page but I can't via WiFi.

I can connect to both the 2.4Ghz & 5Ghz networks but when I try to access the modems log in page via WiFi it just times out.

I've tried resetting modem and restating the PC.

Is there something obvious that I'm missing?  I just find it strange I can get to the log in page via ethernet buut not WiFi.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Edit: And now after changing nothing at all I can access the login scree via WiFi....shrug.

Perhaps you just started the network in the correct order.

• Turn off and unplug modem.
• Turn off router and computers.
• Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
• Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it connect.
• Turn on computers and rest of network.
