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.

enabled.)

If your wireless device finds your network, but the signal strength is weak, check these
conditions:

router, but at least 6 feet (1.8 meters) away, and see whether the signal strength
improves.
•
Are objects between the router and your computer blocking the wireless signal?
