R6400 AC1750 Can't connect on Wi-Fi

[paul-s-1056]

Just got the AC1750 WiFi router: can connect via ethernet fine, but I can't get a WiFi connection to the router on either 2.4 or 5Ghz...I may have to go back to my Belkin WIFi-n model, at least temporarily, as I have a number of laptops scattered around the house, it's very inconvienient to bring them all to an Ethernet...

I fixed the problem myself - I reset the router, then everything came up... I must'a accidentally turned off the WiFi portion of the router when I set it up the first time...

...although all the "normal" lights on the front panel were on, including both the 2.4 and 5Mhz ones...

Can you say a bit more about what is going on?

We can't read much from "I can't get a WiFi connection to the router" unless you tell us what you have done and where it fails.

You can find the user manual here:

NETGEAR AC1750 Smart WiFi Router Model R6400 User Manual

Maybe that will help.
