Bought a new router this week - Netgear N600 WNDR3400. I had an older Netgear router it replaced. For some reason, after working seamlessly for months, I started getting DNS errors. Did a little research, thought the router might be bad, and went for a new one.
New one connects to the internet and two laptops just fine, but the two Netgear Access Points I had no longer connect. I have 2 WN2000RPT units - I need them for wired connections to my Blu-ray and AVR's I have set up on 2 different floors in the house. Plus I work from my home office in my basement a lot, and the extender has really helped my connectivity there. It's an old brick house, so there are limitations to wiring. The laptops can see the access points, but when I try to set them up it will not complete.
I cannot get past the Apply Security Settings screen. I connect to www.mywifiext.net, it recoginizes the access point, asks for the security phrase, I enter it, and then nada. Just stays there. I've tried resetting the access point (full insert the paper clip reset) and still nothing.
I must be doing something wrong. Can you help? Thanks.
Re: Setup hangs on "Apply Security Settings" screen
That did the trick! I had to choose manually typing in the name of the network - if I just clicked on it, I still got the hanging issue. Weird, but typing it in worked.
Re: Setup hangs on "Apply Security Settings" screen
That did the trick! I had to manually type in the name of the network - if I just cliecked on it as one of the avaialble networks, it would hang. By typing in the name of the net it moved on.
