Wireless router Down (urgent)

[pcman2]

Hi a couple of days ago , i was playing online with my wii and during a game on mario strikers , The signal was playing up , so i unplugged the routers main power pack (the black Lead ) and then i plugged it in again and i noticed that the little wireless antenni light had gone off when previously it was on.

So i went in to the settings column on the configuration page , and i noticed that the option to click wireless settings had gone so i coudnt re-set up the network. my AOL broadband conncection works fine but the wireless feature doesnt. so if there is a way to recover them settings then plz share with me.

If this helps my router is a - Netgear DG834G v3

replys greatly appreciated

Good choice of console, btw!

By configuration page, do you mean the one on the router? (http://192.168.0.1) ?

If that the case, sounds like somethings gone a bit skew-whiff, so perhaps a reset to factory defaults is in order - hold in the reset button (between the set of four cat 5 connections and the adsl connection) then check whats going on with the wireless. It's not unknown for the wireless module to go pop on these things.

You may want to try installing the latest firmware, even if you have it installed already. As Snurfen said, the wireless module may have died, but it may be software related and if that is the case then flashing the firmware could help.
