- Apr 16, 2017Symptom: no internet connection for connected wireless devices (wired fine)
How I fixed it myself...
Reset modem, reset router, set security setting on ONE bandwidth from WPA to none.
Tested connection and it worked.
Put the security WPA BACK on and everything still worked. Netgear support never tried that with me after an hour on the phone.

Unable to get an internet connection - did the update of 1.0.3.36_1.1.25 for my R8000 and the connection was very intermittant but now I get nothing. Reboots to no avail. Hard reboot with the help of netgear's tech help, but when that did not work, they told me I was no longer in warranty and could pay to have further assistance. I have tried the auto detect through Netgear Genie... nothing. looking for any articles to try....

What is telling you that there is no connection? The router? A wifi client?
Have you been through the steps described in the solution here?
