Unable to enable wireless

Dear forum users,

 

I have the problem that it won't let me enable the "Enable Wireless Router Radio" option for my WNDR3700v2, so i cannot use my WiFi 😞
Am I missing an option, or is my router broken?

I've upgraded to the latest firmware and also tried a factory reset!

Hope someone can help me 🙂

Model: WNDR3700v2|N600 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router

Try a factory reset.  If that still doesn't work, try pushing the radio button one more time.  If that still fails, then the router may be toast.

Is the wireless light on the router illuminated?  If not, push the button for a few seconds to turn the radios on.

They are not, but the button on the device is not reacting and none of the options in the admin panel of the router is responding when i try to turn it on.
