Do you have a connection on your other devices?

Customer Replay

Yes

Let's try to reset your router. Please, find the pinhole labeled “Reset” with the button inside of it.

Customer Replay

i have eero router and a modem. The eero router does not have a pin hole.

It should turn off and the on again.

Customer Replay

It didn’t
I pressed in a wire but did nilot notice a turn off
i can try it again

author

Try to use pin hole again, if it will not restart, do this:
Try to unplug it from the outlet while it is on.
Leave it like this for 2 minutes.
Plug into the outlet and turn on again.

Customer Replay

Yes I’ll try that

author

Thank you! Take your time, I will be here.

Customer Replay

I did as you instructed. Going back to my computer it is still off line

author

Let's perform a Wireless Diagnostic, okay?

  1. Press and hold the Option key on your keyboard while clicking Wi-Fi in Control Center or the menu bar.
  2. Then choose Open Wireless Diagnostics from the menu.
Customer Replay

That worked. I have a connection. Thank you sir.

author

Is there anything else I can do for you today?

Customer Replay

No that’s all.

I am so pleased to see your issue got resolved!
