    My wireless router stopped working this morning.

    I am getting the following message on the Router Manager page.

    "No Internet connection is detected, the router cannot check the NETGEAR server for updated firmware. After setting up your Internet connection, go to the "Router Upgrade" page to check for updated firmware."

    This does not make any sense to me because I can get a perfect internet connection (wired) when i connect directly from my modem to laptop.

    In addition I have noticed that the wireless signal strength does not get any better than "very good". Up to today the strength is generally "excellent".

    Can anyone help?

    cheers

    does your modem show an ethernet link when connected to the router?

    i take it you were using the same ethernet cable between the modem & router as you were between the modem & laptop, might be worth trying to swap it an dsee if it helps any

    if that doesn't sort it out it out might be a dead WAN port on the router,
