R9000 - Can't turn off WiFi using hardware on/off button
I have a Netgear Night Hawk X10 R9000 I purchased a couple of months ago, and I’m having some issues with the Wi-Fi button on the front......the 2nd button from the right, next to the WPS button. When I press and hold down the button for two seconds, the button lights up along with the 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and the four antennas......but here’s where it gets interesting. When I again press and hold down the WiFi button (2nd from the right), the button light goes out, the 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and the antenna lights go out, BUT.....the WiFi is still active on both the 2.4 and 5GHz bands (I still have WiFi Internet!!). Consequently, how could I still have WiFi Internet if the lights on the antennas are off, and the 2.4 and 5GHz lights are off also? The only way I’ve found to turn off the WiFi is to turn off the SSID broadcast for both the 2.4 and 5GHz bands in the router setup, but this is a real pain. I’ve updated to the latest firmware, but still no fix. NOTE: I’m NOT using the WPS feature / button; whereas, I’ve never got it to sync to any of my WiFi devices. Any suggestions or fixes?Solved3.9KViews0likes4CommentsRN10200 Unable to Boot or reset or reinstall OS
My ReadyNAS is invisible to raidAIR and doesn't even show up under my routers connected devices list. I've tried several times to factory reset and it doesn't seem to work. I tried upgrading firmware back sometime in the winter and since then the readyNAS got put away in a box. Recently went to use it again and remembered why it ended up in the box... I've tried an OS reinstall just now with 2 different USB sticks, both times the process goes about it's thing very quickly, but then nothing happens. Is the readyNAS toast or should I just keep trying with other USB drives? Also, the unit is unresponsive to the power button and passed the memory test. I'm kind of stumped.5.1KViews0likes14Comments
