4 TopicsSome wifi devices cannot connect
Some of our phones, tablets, kindles can connect to our wifi, but ever since the latest firmware upgrade to V1.0.052_1.0.81 most new wifi devices cannot connect. The phones can see the wifi, but it never able to connect. I tried changing the phone IP to static, reseting my phone to factory default but still it does not work. I tried disabling access control, using a guest network, nothing. When i go to access control the router does not even see the mac address of my phone, but with other devices it will show the mac address and give me the option to allow that device. So far an iphone 6 and a Samsung galaxy s5 have been unable to connect (among a number of others). Any ideas? Is my best bet to restore the router to factory default?Solved3.7KViews0likes3CommentsWNDR3400V2 (RN600) router - wireless repeating
First posting ;) I have this router, firmware V1.0.0.52_1.0.81 .That I either use as my internet router connected to a cable modem, or as an access point, switch, readyshare. I would like to enable wireless repeating of my cable router. When I enable it (any after a few screens about auto channel, ssid etc) I can get it to work, but after I cannot login and cannot access the USB drive. Is this expected behaviour? Or is there a detailed setup guide to enable wireless repeating and retain readyshare? regards Mr.GSolvedwndr3400v2 and chromecast
I recently had some wifi issues so I called Netgear support and the gentleman was very helpful and got me up and running with a new wifi password and renamed my home network among other things. He madue some other outages to my router settings along the way but I do not remember exactly what he changed. That was a few days ago. Today I went to setp my Chromecast devices since I changed the name of my home network and the password and something strange happened. As soon as I hit the setup button on the Chromecast app my wifi signal drops so I get a message that says cannot communicate with your chromecast because the device I am using is no longer on the network. I have tried this with several android phones and my windows laptop...no luck. I was able to set up the Chromecasts using my phone before I called for support. Since I was charged through the nose for support I am hoping someone can tell me what settings on my router may cause this to happen and how to change them back. Thanks.Solved
