TP-Link Router Not Broadcasting

[StonerStuart]

High guys...

Please help me out here if possible.

Yesterday I got home and i could not connect to my wifi network.

I managed to log into the router via cable and check the settings, it is set to broadcast the network and says it is enabled but neither my laptop nor my phone can find the network, the ssid is not hidden.

The model in question is the TP-Link TL-MR3420.

I updated the firmware but it still doesnt work.

Any ideas as to what this sporadic things problem is?

Thanks.

All I can think, apart from a faulty router, is that the channel is set to auto, and the country or region is set to something that allows channels other than what your laptop is set to receive. Maybe try manually selecting say, channel 6 and see if that helps?
