netgear wireless router security configuration

Question about NetGear Wireless Router?

When I turned on the router this morning I had the following issues:

1. Security on access to the network was disabled.

2. The UPSTREAM light indicator did not continuosly flicker as before.

3. The router is not able to obtain time and date from the server.

4. The CONNECTED DEVICES item in the Router Configuration Application menu, that would allow me to see the names and MAC addresses of the computers connected, is no longer there.

Even though I was able to restore the security enabled setting, and have wireless and ethernet access to the internet, I wasn’t able to solve any of the other problems.

Has something similar happened to you?

I’d appreciate ANY info or suggestion…

Thanks for taking the time!!

There is a good chance that someone got into your router and changed the setting.

I would reset the router first and change the admin password right the way and then work on resetting all the settings.

It also seems like your router went through a firmware update? If so you might be able to roll back to an earlier version by downloading from the manufacture website.
