Changes Not Saved
If the router does not save the changes you make in the router interface, check the following:
•When entering configuration settings, always click the Apply button before moving to another screen or tab, or your changes are lost.
•Click the Refresh or Reload button in the web browser. The changes might have occurred, but the old settings might be in the web browser’s cache.
Incorrect Date or Time
Select Security > Schedule to display the current date and time. The router uses the Network Time Protocol (NTP) to obtain the current time from one of several network time servers on the Internet. Each entry in the log is stamped with the date and time of day. Problems with the date and time function can include the following:
•Date shown is January 1, 2000. The router has not yet reached a network time server. Check that your Internet access is configured correctly. If you have just finished setting up the router, wait at least 5 minutes, and check the date and time again.
•Time is off by one hour. The router does not automatically sense daylight savings time. In the Schedule screen, select the Automatically adjust for daylight savings time check box.
Wireless Connectivity
If you are having trouble connecting wirelessly to the router, try to isolate the problem.
•Does the wireless device or computer that you are using find your wireless network?
If not, check the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz LEDs on the front of the router. They should be lit. If they are not, you can press the Wireless button on the front of the router to turn the routers wireless radios back on.
If you disabled the router’s SSID broadcast, then your wireless network is hidden and does not show up in your wireless client’s scanning list. (By default, SSID broadcast is enabled.)
•If your wireless device finds the network but you cannot join the network, check to make sure that your wireless device is compatible with the network that you selected (2.4 GHz or 5 GHz).
•Does your wireless device support the security that you are using for your wireless network (WPA or WPA2)?
