If you undo it, are you able to access the internet? Do all computres/devices on this network have the same issue? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Mindovermaster 3,423 Posted August 24, 2019 You connect wireless by a phone/tablet or computer? You might need to flush the DNS. To get a new SSID. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A winsock reset for changing an SSID? Insanity. Edited August 25, 2019 by adrynalyne Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 +BudMan 3,720 Posted August 25, 2019 You say you connect, but did you get an IP? Did you get dns? I am assuming your on windows? If so do a ipconfig /all after you connect to your new ssid.. Can you ping the router IP? Can you query say www.google.com (nslookup) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
