    That does not tell us much.

     

    Is the router connected to a PC?

     

    Does it broadcast wifi?

     

    If there is one it might also help if you told people the make and model number of the modem/gateway/ONT that sits between this router and the Internet. Is it, by any chance, also a router, with a set of LAN ports on the back?

    I ask because a lot of people turn up here trying to put a router behind a modem that is also a router. That can complicate troubleshooting.

    To get decent advice you really need to explain what you are doing and where it goes wrong.

     

    You can help people to help you by providing the information suggested in this forum's header:

     


    Subject (Include model number and brief summary)
    Model (Recommended - Helps the community give the best answers)
    Body (Include additional detail including model version, firmware, OS and environment where relevant.)

    They are there for a good reason.

    Which router?

     

    ax6000 is not a reliable guide to model number. Many devices come with an AC or AX tag, but it is essentially a label that Netgear, and other brands, attach to hardware to describe wifi speeds.

     

    Look at the label on the device for the model number. RAX###?

  • 15 second press of the reset button then release in back does nothing?
