PLW1000 v2 will no longer connect.

PLW1000 v2 will no longer connect.

I set up a PLW1000 v2 network to send a WiFi signal to a detatched garage, so I could connect a smart TV.  It worked flawlessly for about 2 1/2 months, and then suddenly it will no longer connect.  I tried bringing the unit back in the house to see if it was too far away, but still no luck.  The TV, my phone, laptop, etc. can all see the network, but when I try to connect it just endlessly loops with "Obtaining IP address".  I've even tried connecting my laptop to the WiFi unit with an ethernet cable, but still no luck.

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

So...it may have been a case of just swithcing the ethernet net port, on the modem, the cable was plugged into.  Seems to be working again.  I'll update if the problem returns.

 

DOH!!
